If you talk to a TVR owner they'll tell you its the greatest thing since 
sliced bread.  I joined two members of my local car-guy support group for a 
beer or two (or three) last friday evening and they waxed poetic on the 
thing.  It seems that the car is totally neutral and with the many engine 
options (typically they are found with TR6 or GT6 engines but folks put 5.0L 
Fords in them too) the cars can go like stink!  With four wheel disk brakes 
they can stop on a dime (unfortunately, the dime was in Mr. Rococco's 
pocket).  The evening concluded with them thinking me an absolute idiot to 
want an MGB/GT when I could for about the same $$$ get my hands on a tivver.
