Can't believe it happened when I was driving it :wall:

Smelt a strong smell of petrol,then just up the road there was a big bang and the bonnet flew up with flames coming over the windscreen :(

Gutted :(

:eek: :eek: :eek:

Fook :eek: :eek:

:eek: :eek:

oh damn! sorry mate not nice to happen to you.what did your bro say?

In all honesty after seeing the build quality on TVRs it doesn't surprise me. Gutted for you though :(

Whoops :cry: :cry:

so thats TVR build quality for you then :cry:

you must be gutted mate, i felt like a right a cunt when i killed the engine of my mates skyline, but found out today that he tought it was already fucked, so i now feel less of a cunt and i aint giving him any cash at all now :cry:

:eek: :eek:

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :(

Fuck.

So whats happening then, do you have to pay for it? :(

:eek: :eek: :eek:

What a fucker :(

Hopefully insurance will cover that!

Out of interest how was it to drive? Quick?

Been ok about it so far :top:

Said all the sensible things,no one hurt,would have happened who ever was driving etc :(

Claim on his insurance m8,I ain't got 16 grand to replace it! :cry:

Glad your OK Kev.

'Blistering' :cry:

Sorry Kev but whats done is done and at least nobody got hurt in the incident :top:

I'm surprised it didnt melt into a plastic blob.

Hopefully insurance job yeah :)

Wasn't overly impressed with it,deffo not as quick as my saph :top:

fookin hell, uve kerbed that alloy quite badly there havent ya :cry:

nah, glad ya ok tho and insurance should cover it.

i think its such a shame TVR's have reliabilty issues etc coz i think theyre one the sexiest lookin cars on the road, especially so the cerberas

Thanks :top:

Eye opener though,need to get a bigger extinguisher in the cosworth after seeing how quick it went up :(

Yeah,will get over it,still a shit feeling when he saw his pride and joy like that when I was the pilot :(

:top:

ive seen 2 of them before catch fire on the road....

sorry to hear that mate :(

:eek: Fuck !!!!!!!!

At the end of the day mate your still alive thats the bonus car can be replaced life cant ! .



Regards Doug .

Were they under bonnet fires to start with m8????????

:top:

:eek: :eek: :eek:

Do they know what caused it?

i would have just stud there and cried :moaning:

Just had a strong smell of petrol,then the bang :wall:

Presume fuel line must have split under bonnet,fire started at rear of engine/bulkhead area :(

fookin gutted :(

yes mate they were one was in traffic for a few secs we ran out of our shop with a fire extinguisher

fooking hell kev glad no one was hurt

Yeah :top:
Just my pride dented and my m8's hair burnt off his arm as he escaped :eek:

:top:

theres a tvr garage where i live and a while back some bloke kept on parking a trailer outside it with a burnt out tvr on all stickered up saying there death traps and a load of shite in flurecent writing, it was there for a while and there was nothing the garage cud do. :cry:

:eek:


very lucky! :eek:

Gutted, beats what I did to Tiffs S1 though- :cry:

Ferrari's split in half and TVR's catch on fire.. whatever next :roll: Glad you're ok mate. shame about the car, gorgeous.

oooops mate, but atleast no one was hurt, tvr build quality is poo, ive worked on em!

got to agree, a mate had a cerbera 4.5 for about a year and a half, it spent more time at TVR than it did with him, he said he'd never buy another TVR again.

lol :cry: :cry:

At least your ok Kev thats the main thing.

Sad to see any car in that state :(
