Chris - there's always a woman invloved unless you like to remain well-off, free, uncomplicated and either enjoy being alone or have a 'nice mate' !
I can't believe how ugly TVRs have become - sort of curved 350i s !
Green IS great.......I loved James' Z which'll be at LM Classic this year :
Phil - I was there - it didn't finish but I nicked one of their posters from behind their lorry

.............car was so well recognised at LMClassic by people as far away as Australia........can I change the coulour ?
Maybe by adding some....."go-faster-stripes".......or another colour on top ?
Does anyone find choosing a colour or coulour-scheme easy ?

Keep it yellow Sean - it's you.
If you really want to play around with ideas, why not try these vinyl overlays - when you get bored you can peel it all off.

I struggled. Faced with the opportunity of a complete colour change, I just couldn't imagine my car being anything but red(ish). The previous colour looked a bit brown when the sun wasn't shining on it, but it always looked its best when the sun did shine and it looked a nice deep red metallic - so that's how it came about.

Agree with Rob there. Some black vinyl striping on your would freshen it up enough 'til you got bored and peeled it off. Wait 'til later and I'll do you some visuals.

Rob, everyone said that I was 'green' when I had the green and...white...one....!
What I was thinking today whilst driving 450 miles and working on three sites at Rennes, Lorient and St Nazaire was.........why make it a 'racing' look and pretend that it's a road car ? The 260 I did IS a road car and very pleasant too but wouldn't be half as much fun on a track.
It comes down to cars being either medium compromises or dedicated which can be applied to almost every car ever sold and on sale today.

But isn't yours geared betw'ixt road and track (making it one of these medium compromises)? ie wider track and stiffer suspension for track but ladies power steering for the road and parking?

Diff ratio change - easy !
And you think power-steering makes for slower track-days ?
Anyway, before decals, what about magnets ?

Great news Sean, at long last.......
Notice you gave us a little teaser of what the exterior colour is going to be
I'll start the ball rolling with 112 Lime as my first guess and 919 Sunshine Yellow as a back up in case monitor is playing tricks
To which 50th event are you referring btw...... Spa ? Silverstone ?

Neither, probably a small piece of cake in a corner on my own with one candle for the form....!
Work is gonna go ballistic and the car will need some fiddling with to finish plus two steps of running in on a brand-new engine....and brand new everything else come to think of it !
