Read it in evo last night, Mr Wheeler sold out for £15M, fair play to him, but the ruskies are taking over the world, car manufacturers, football clubs, what next ?

Anyway, the new owner is 25 years old, has implemented quality control to get over the "tvrs keep breaking down" issues, is looking for new staff and new premises to improve production facilities.

Sounds good for TVR, however, isn't there someone in the UK who has a little spare dough to do the same ?

Well, after all the rumours going round the Preston area about TVR going into receivership and also the amount of "parts" walking out of the factory then I am not suprised they got bought out.

Confirms what was being talked about round this area then.

The amount of calipers that were "available" from TVR was unreal.

dannyblackpool

Hmmmmmm yup New Aps that aint even on market yet

Most workers cars had TVR parts on be it mirrors or gear knobs etc and no one ever said anything, Started to do stop checks but said when they were gonna be done

Most things thrown over fence to ajoining park, that bad there was a rut in ground on park side to the fence


U name it it was stolen and yes i mean engines chassis(not complete that i know) part shells
