난이도 & 준비물

증상

Bought this in June as I was keen to try a more “classic” feeling car (more on this below). It’s a 1995 Griffith 500 (N reg) in the following spec:Giallo FlyNavy interior and roofWhite stitching on the seatsYellow trim on the carpetsYellow dialsOriginal Pioneer head unit!A few pictures including petrol station and stationary on the M25 shots. It’s a non-PAS and non-aircon car. Badge on the plenum is 500 HC but my understanding is that this was either whatever badge TVR had lying around or a truism/marketing on TVR’s part as all 5.0s were “highlift cam” cars! HC in TVR world, as far as I can

Thanks all! I think Griffiths are really decent value at the moment for something so interesting and fun. Wouldn't want to use it as a town centre runaround or for 300 miles on the motorway regularly but it'll do both at a pinch, and as a weekend car it's been superb so far. I'm already looking at upgrades but want to keep the road softness to it, so looking at staying close to standard. Hopefully it's running well when it goes on the dyno, and I can then make sure suspension and other bits are in good shape - it's all very original which is great. Intake hose (filter to maf) looks a little elderly so that's probably job number one. The trick will be not to just buy a load of other shiny parts at the same time!
