The blue Aero looks nice BTW!!


Well I actually had started the process off before the medical event(I drove it a week earlier), and had left it with Berrybrook to come back to me with some financial thoughts. When I finally got home I heard from them and gave them a call. The lovely Henry presented a very good plan to get me into the Aero and suggested that I came down when I felt able and had a really good look again. So Mr Budster a fews days later took me out for the morning, we had already arranged to meet, and to Berrybrook. I spent quite a long time checking the car over and Henry put it on a ramp. The more I looked the more convinced I was. So the deal was struck, which I am very pleased with, and so is swmbo.

Lusting after an Aero goes back to when it first appeared at the NEC Motorshow, I was into TVR's then, we were there to see and decide whether to put a deposit on a new Tuscan. The Aero at the show was the dark blue one in the MMC collection, I very nearly ordered the Aero instead ooo of the Tuscan(that never came, I pulled out a year later).

Anyway I am very excited, I never thought I would be able to own one, I think its particularly good, and has been looked after well, a couple of minor niggles that Henry is getting sorted. So 8 April is the big day, when I can drive again, I will miss my Roadster its a great car, but I think the Aero is the right one for me and several TM pals think the same.

I just need to come up with a suitable name thinking
