What you don't carry a camera with you.
David Woods i.e Luffields is well known in SV circles. Can't recall what colour his is though :)
Blue I believe but he has sold it. I did take some pics I'll put them up later tim. Not v good pics though as they were taken inside the garage and on my iPhone. :D
Thinking about it I think he had a green one as well as the blue motorshow car. I recall a green one in the MGCC Silverstone paddock with "LUF1" on the numberplate.Quote:

Luffield will have two TF LE500 Race Cars in this years MGCC championship.

I know I'll get punched (hard) in the face for saying this, but the SV reminds me of lots of kits cars I've come across (and, yes, I've owned a couple).
The front looks fine, but when they get to the back they say to each other... "oh, fuck it, those old Lucas lights always looked good, let's stick them on". Then after they've done it they say "oh, bollocks, they aren't bright enough, have we still got any of those reflectors we bought when Raleigh went titsup?"
I said I'd get punched... :~
pmsl..........
nice pics....thankyou for sharing them with us :thumb
Always nice to see a SV. Mr Stuart Watson's SV No 106, the sixth production example.
David's Car is No 139, pictured here at Windsor in 2009 with ZR-X as we recreated the 2004 Motor Show !
