TVR6 0 Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 They had a similar feature car on Top Gear a few years back. It was based on a Mk2 RS2000 (similar to the one on the opening teme tune for the Sweeney) with fully cossie conversion etc. The showed a 911 turbo, from the front, belting down the track and this thing just pulls out casually from behind and leaves it behind. It was f*cking awesome 8) Link to post Share on other sites

It was mint! I did fancy it for myself, but knew I would not be able to leave it anywhere. But then again, my Highline is used as a second car nowadays (occassionally) so would not have mattered anyway.Anyway, I'm pleased I bought the Highline.Jon 8) blimey what did it go for?
