MB - agreed on induction/zorst on the ELise - a lot of owners do, apparently. I'm just not that into modding...

PS - have you heard about Peter Wheeler? Only 64! Not a big TVR fan, but without him/them the last two/three decades would have been a lot more boring in the car market...

Chain smoker (pot & black kettle!) and obviously under a lot of stress.

Here's to Peter Wheeler.

Just seen Clarkson's drive of the Evora on TG. Said it's better than the Porsche

That Evora looks bloody great and they seem to have made it handle AND ride without attaching HAL 9000 to the suspension.

Shame about the price

That doesn't surprise me - it's one of the very few modern cars that ticks all the boxes.
