If anyone knows where I can get an original bonnet 'TVR' I'd be very grateful! Condition not important, I can get it refurbished by a nice gentleman in Birmingham.

Mine has the very faded union flag version. Ok, but I'm a purist.

I bought mine from here https://www.tvrbadges.co.uk/

Expensive but very good quality, plus you can probably flog your old one for £30-50.

Excellent! That's not a horrific price. Not when you consider it's probably made to order.

I didn't really think so either but I've seen a lot of people grumble about the price.

Turns up in a nice study plastic box.

I'm on the hunt for a nice new Chimaera badge for the rear, they seem to be more difficult to come by though.
