turns out you have to have a special jumper lead plug thing for the tvr

which plugs in underneath the body

otherwise to plug a normal jumplead into the battery you have to remove the front passenger wheel  :shock:

Got to agree.
I've driven a Griffith 500 on a track-day, & been a passenger in a Sagaris (165MPH! In the wet!! Fishtailing! Overtaking Murcialagos)

Test-drove a Chimera 450 & a Griff 400 on the road, prior to deciding to stick with Solihull (Ie; when I was ready to sell the Discovery)

I worked for tvr eng in blackpool for ten years and you could guarantee that you would have to jump start 90 percent of them evern when brand new every morning. The Griffith  was the best tvr ever made and it was a shame when it came to an end.
