Aston "DB10", just a one off I believe. Bears a strong resemblance to my own chariot IMHO.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTDaET-JweU

Scarlet Johansson, really sorry babe, yes I know I promised, but you've just dropped to number 2 on my must have (at least once) list https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTDaET-JweU

If any TVRCC members are still thinking of placing a deposit and haven't done so as yet remember the offer of 50% discount on the deposit amount ends on July 31st
Has there been a good take up from the club?V8 GRF said:
Les Edgar He isn't disclosing numbers
He`s not disclosing a lot is he? Yet he expects people to hand over £5k on promise and a dream? Good luck to you all, I truly hope you get what you wanted, but the cynic in me says otherwise. Yep sure you might get your nice new TVRs, but really? some of you must have more money than sense.If Les Edgar was Nigerian and asking to arranging his own shipping agent would you be handing over £5k?

I might live on the south coast now, but my roots are pure South London and have comfort in the knowledge my money is safe and would only need to ask some old friends to recover it one way or another should the business try to relocate to Lagos

Head office in Whiteley, H???
Were is production going to be Leigh Park?
That's no more than a mail drop tbh, lots of companies run out of there. Were is production going to be Leigh Park?
Leigh park, is that like down town Baghdad....
Production is an issue if you locate it in the south, the overheads are high, probably too high in Surrey, which is part of the London Lala land for even the most basic unskilled labour.
Hants or Sussex would be my guess. A further guess would be part of the goodwood industrial site, good enough for RR and a large local pool of not over priced labour.

Maybe Ms Dineage could sort something out at Daedalus,after all no one else is going to move in there. I know TVR could do coolant trails on the A32 on a Monday morning
You know what the Daedalus site is not a bad shout on many levels......they want technology industry there, they offer rates discounts as a Enterprise zone, potential grants too. Quite a high local skill base and no daft Home Counties wages too....what's not to like...Edited by HarryW on Sunday 26th July 18:00

Have you re commissioned your Tam this year?
Yes mate, got Rich (Southways) to fit new (leaking) coolant pipe, new oil pressure sender, at last, oil/filter service, general check over and new MoT.Then last week had a brown trouser moment on a little leisurely
run up the A32 following some bikes
Going north bound past the wood factory at Soberton mill, sharp left hander, then back end grounded out on the bumps, lost control a little but fought it back into shape. Anyway the result was a broken n/s rear coil spring
So off the road again while I decide on what set up to go for.
Holiday or new suspension for the Tam?? I reckon Lynn will win this one I`m afraid, so it will probably mean fitting a couple of new rear springs instead.
Any sign of the Cerb getting back on the round? Instead of throwing £5k at a pipe dream you should get the proper Tiv back on the road
