TVR Griffith 5.0 2d (2000/V) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
A lot of power to the pound.
Costs
Don't bother with genuine parts, you can get the identical part from Ford for much less.
-
On the road
Driving
Dry - never had better, never will. Wet - be careful, very careful! (PAS is a must).
Performance
Awesome. The only thing that can beat it is a large bike.

Living with it
Reliability
I don't recommend you use this as an every day car, although they run better with regular use.
Image
Wow.
Comfort
Fantastic, but a little noisy on a long motorway run.
-
Security and Service
Security
Too easy to get into even with roof up. Otherwise, fine.
Service
Main dealer prices are extreamly high (parts & labour). I suggest you use them or the service stamp only.
