So... Who is up for this then. I know its on a Friday and it will be difficult for most people to get the time off work, but lets see how many can go.

I'd also be interested to read the views of people who actually work at the factory (i.e Gerbil) or have close ties with people at the factory (i.e Gaffer) regarding the proposed rally.

I can be there but to be worthwhile we need to be in the hundreds not 4 cars.

Can't make the Friday, It would have been my Mums 70th, and I need to spend the day with my Family.

Could make the 4th though.

Even if its not a protest, it could more of a fitting send off to those who have just lost their jobs at the plant!

I know if I was in the situation they're in, it would fill me with a warm feeling to see a great selection of TVRs parked outside, engines running with TVR flags, union jacks flying high ready to give us all a proper send off!

If I had a TVR I would definitely be there (I dont suppose standing waving my keyring about would help any would it?? hehe)

Come on guys, these workers have made many TVR owners happy for many years

Only five takers up to now. That would be a bit of an insult I think. We need a minimum of fifty IMHO.

No. I don't think anybody knows when that will be. It's just a suggestion.

I don't think TVR made any love toys. Sorry re-read your post.

this is what I like to see, the PH/TVR spirit kicking into full swing once more!

I hope you get your quota and give the good fellas of TVR a warm hearted send off in true TVR style

Can anyone tell me what's the mystical significance of November 3? For a start, why make it a Friday when most of us are at work and can't get there, and if it's to signal our support for the TVR workforce, why not make it a more significant day, like the last day of working or something?
