hi guys. I'm in need of an HST vin number to order a grill from my dealer. They said they can't supply to anyone who doesn't have the actual thing? Would anyone mind if I borrowed their chassis number?

Thanks very much Miss my TVR, Miss my 740i, BUT LOVE MY RANGY

Didn't you say you'd sourced one of these from "a friendly dealer", Ade?

I bought one no problem from my dealer

my dealer ordered mine in for me too,

mind you I did buy my car from them

I bought mine off them too, but theyre being really awkward... I also asked them to stop all the beeping eg the key in ignitiion and door open beeps and they claim it is impossible to do so... AAAAAARRRRRHHHHHGGGG... Hate some dealerships... one guy in there was being nice... also found out that if I have a VIN of an HST i can order the front and back bumper & vents & exhaust tips for about £1900. the only problem they said id have is that the exhaust clip or piping is 60mm and the one on mine is 50mm...

anyhoo...

Cheers guys Miss my TVR, Miss my 740i, BUT LOVE MY RANGY

Yeah, don't buy the HST tips as they're awful! (IMHO, Sorry WW! ) Runner up - 2009 Best Avatar Award

They say that cuz you have a 50mm pipe on your TDV6 and the SC pipe is 60mm (both from the Cat!!!) but that is before you get to the back box!!! (so going from the front to back of the car!)

as you can see in this pic we had to fit a 60-50mm set down tube. you can see it in between the 2 clamps!



All the HST trim is a slip on trim that fit's over he SC tip. So if i wanted to fit it to mine all i'd have to do is slip the trim over the SC tips i have

Hope you get all that  RRS TDV6 Gone but still around
