Re: What are you driving? TVR 280i...

75.105.138.36

I agree,
I myself own two 280i series 1 1/2. They are very much like kit cars. Both are, so far, 100% stock and one of them, 33000 mls, is used as daily driver. It is a lot of fun to drive, but the lack of performance and the horrible 4 speed make me want to swap the drive train against something more powerful without loosing gas milage.
My second car has only 6500 mls on it and is currently disabled due to a bad water pump and a deteriorated intake rubber hose.
I enjoy that in 3 years of ownership, I only once met another TVR on the road. A 1987 280i. The cars being nice conversation starters, the other driver and me became friends and still maintain contact.
