Hi Robin, I do appreciate what you are saying, my intention is to eliminate road cars from my shop, also I get much more enjoyment from building than driving, the only driving now is racing, so if you know of a TVR with 1600 xflow for sale please let me know as that is the last car needed for my collection (must be a race car)
