About
Us
Hi and welcome to our website, the home of Shinynuts. Just a few words
to introduce myself and our business, that's has proved to be
very successful.
I bought a TVR 4.5 Cerbera about 3 years ago having previously owned
a number of different 911's. I've been actively involved with the Northants
TVRCC over the past few years and joined the Sprint editorial team at
the end of 2003. It's been great fun writing for the magazine and I've
been lucky enough to drive some truly wonderful cars as well as meeting
lots of TVR enthusiasts too. I'm a track day fan and really enjoy driving
my Cerbera close to its limits on the track. For me, this is an essential
part of the ownership experience with TVR.

When I put a set of Spider wheels on my Cerbera, they arrived with a
new set of black powder coated steel wheel nuts that soon became rusty.
I hunted high and low on the internet for some better quality ones but
found nothing suitable. So I decided to have a set made from stainless
steel. One thing led to another and here we are with more than 400 sets
now installed on TVR's within Europe. We've taken special care to manufacture
them to the highest quality and you can read about our special manufacturing
process on the adjacent page.
Thanks to some nice comments posted on www.PistonHeads.com, sales have
gradually taken off. In fact the name Shinynuts originated from one of
the first threads posted by Gerry at www.bonneroute.co.uk on the PistonHeads Gassing
Station. I was particularly pleased to receive an order for
4 sets of Shinynuts from TVR Engineering in time to go on their show
cars for the 2004 Sunday Times NEC Motor Show. Not a bad endorsement
for our Shinynuts!
Was it the car or was it my Shinynuts that attracted these
visitors to our stand at PistonFest 2004? |
