TVR specialist Leven opens new service shop

Special offers available at open day on 14 November


Leven Technology, best known for high quality accessories for TVRs, is opening up a new service facility in Essex.
 
The company has responded to the need for specialist servicing facilities in the area which despite being home to many TVRs, has lacked independent support for the marque.
 
Initially, Leven will specialise in servicing and upgrading Griffith and Chimaeras although it will also undertake some work on the newer cars too.
 
The man running the venture is Dan Taylor. He's very well known in the race community as being key to the running of Tuscan Champion Steve Guglielmi's race car, as well as being a member of the team that ran the TVR Le Mans cars, and more recently RSR's Tuscan Rs. His race experience followed training in a TVR main dealer.
 
Leven opens its doors on 1 November and can be found in its bespoke facility one mile from the A127 (M25 Jct 29 towards Southend).
 
If you're curious to have a look around before booking your car in, Leven its opening its doors on Sunday 14 November from 9 until 12. You'll be able to meet Dan, view the facilities and snap up some special offers from Leven's range of TVR accessories.

Obviously with Dans race experience once the service is finished he will clean the windscreen, fill the tank up, lower the car and you can wheel spin out of the garage (not forgetting the rev limiter)

Congratulations to Simon and Julie, two superb people who totally look after their customers and also make a great team.
I'm sure this extension to eLeven will be highly successful and appreciated....

I think it would be good if Mid Essex could meet up at Leven that morning and then run on to the Meet.

It was discussed last week after the Meet, but I was going to run the idea past Jules and Si before doing anything in a newsletter.

We can be a bit much if Mid Essex all decide to turn out!!!

I'll give Jules a call and see if she can cope with us all in one go

And probably a load of us from SE London / NW Kent too, that'll fall the Leven car park pretty quickly...

Must get my shiny stuff list ready for the 14th - look forward to catching up with you Mid Essex folks :wave:

Thanks for all the support and positive comments.
We think that the car park can hold up to 50 cars (we had 30 odd last time!) so come on over, all regions welcome. Nearer the time we will try to get a head count so that the coffee and bacon rolls do not run out!

We look to seeing you all on the day.

Simon, Jules & Dan

Del no one could ever say that your repertoire is limited could they ?

You make Ee-ore the one trick Donkey look an intellectual giant.

Rumour has it that Mickey Mouse wears a Del watch.....

Is that the secret new purchase you don't want anyone to know about, but is now being plugged on 2 separate threads ?

Superb company to do business with - Julie rang to check I was in to receive delivery, and is now replacing one of my washer jets (cannot adjust the nozzles) without quible. Best service in a long time, thanks.
