Ever seen one of these? (TVR content)

This is the first (and only) TVR i have ever seen in person. What a cool car! This actual car is owned by a friend and it is beleived to be the ONLY TVR in all of the Bahamas. This pic was taken in Nassau (by me).



Just thought id share a cool 'car experience' with you guys

That TVR has to be one of the ugliest variations--and that is hard to do considering some of the modern offerings.

About 11 years ago I almost bought a mid-70s M-series TVR from this little used-car dealership that was at the intersection of 113 & 73. It sat there for four months or more. I worked down the street and would stop off every few days to drool on it...I still regret not just buying the damn thing.

Thanks for all the comments. I dont have any more pics of that car --- and yes, its not THE BEST car ever nor is it the best looking car ever --- but the "rare factor" on that car is VERY high #1....and #2 that it is in the Bahamas where getting a car into the country and onto the island is NOT easy --- makes it a cool spot i think

I will be back at my friends in April so hopefully ill get to take the car out for a spin and get some more pics for you all!
