Well last Friday was my 22nd birthday. My boyfriend had asked me what I wanted for my birthday and I replied "a TVR Sagaris" ;)

So anyway opened my present on friday and he had got me a 1:18 TVR Sagaris model and a TVR track day :A:. He couldn't quite afford the £30k to buy me a real one so got me the next best thing.

Has anyone ever been on a track day before? I'm really looking forward to it. And the extra bonus was that dad said I can drive the Tamora now so I'm not wasting my laps getting used to the car. Result!

Will do!

I'm hopefully getting a Griffith at the end of the year if all goes well so hopefully this will be good practice. I think I get to go round in a Tuscan. I'm just hoping I'll be able to see over the steering wheel because I'm only 5ft1 :oops:

Only £1070 fully comp for a 5.0ltr. Didn't think it was too bad. That was quoted when I was 21 too and I'm 22 now. That may make a bit of difference

Not second hand. I'm not that demanding, used would have done lol ;)

But I really can't wait. I'm really passionate about TVRs. I went on about them so much my dad ended up buying one and he's now had a Chimaera, a Tuscan and a Tamora lol. I'm just worried I'll mess it up on the day and it will give my boyfriend and dad enough ammunition to take the piss for a least a year :oops:

My brother did the classic sports car track day ... he drove a Aston Martin DB5, a D-Type Jag, an E-Type Jag, a Mk2 Jag and an AC Cobra!!
