Thanks all for the kind words and warm welcome. RC: you understand completely! As for your Fogo-power, you are up there for sure!

Novass: the TVR is a Cerbera 4.5. It belongs to a good friend of mine, who has the only one in the country. This is his 2nd (he crunked up the first one), and he also has a lotus exige motorsport with custom done CF panels (to replace the fibergrlass ones) and an uprated engine, plus his car has a removable top. It's VERY cool, and unlike anything else I've ever been in.

That TVR is WICKED too. Pictures don't do it justice. Very sleek, low, sexy and muscular car in real life. By the way, it is RHD. Absolutely awesome cars. Lucky guy to have them in the US!!!

I think I have a few more of his car from another drive. Actually, my favorite shot of his car (same passenger who took my speedo shot managed to capture this) is at the top, and a few more to follow.

Thanks for the pics! Thats a nice car, hes very lucky to have one in the States. Ive never seen any TVRs in real life, damn shame cause I like them. That hood is wicked on the Cerbera. Was his first TVR a Cerbera too?

A marvellous car for sure! Thanks for sharing the pics! I also see a nice Miura in one of them.. drooool
Congrats dude I'm sure you have lot of fun with it

Now what about this I know it could sound "to much" since we asked for pics and pics came (both from you and from Norman), but since it's so rare to have other Ferrari owners beside a couple of ones around here, would it be possible to post a custom shot? Let's say front page of the owner manual with the tool kit beside it? it should take 5 min I think

I hope you could understand there are to many people just posting dealers pics (not your case) or pics taken at meeting or on other boards, pertending the cars are theirs and to ask some more proof has to be the routine of course if you don't want to post the pic here in the topic you could simply PM it to me and Jabba.

Thanks and again, nice car

You want a picture of the tool-kit with the owner's manual open? I can go do that today. How about on the dirty dirty trunk?

LOL yes manual open or closed it ok of course if you want to open it at page number 5 and cover 1/4 of it with the tool-kit it would be even better LOL, j/k, yes a shot with both of them on the trunk (dirty) would be superfine but then kit and manual will be dirty as well LOL.
