I hope the form presented there is close to the one of the final car.
I'm expecting a finished car if they want me to commit my money !

That´s perfectly understandable, but my guess is, that the reveal will not yet be the time you´ll have to make that commitment. To make that commitment you´d have to know final pricing, build slot, approximate delivery date and lots of other things.

What i meant though is, that i found the silhouette from the battersea show pictures simply breathtaking and that i hope that they do not move away from that too much. I especially liked the back. Maybe my eyes tricked me, but i believe it is substantially more "massive" and edgy than the first teaser-shots were indicating.

The email stated "We will confirm your allocated time slot by email after February 15th so as to allow a significant number of replies to be received beforehand."

FYI: the TVRCC are looking to facilitate this on behalf of Ebbw Vale.

I didn't realise this was taking place in Surrey. I assumed it would have been in Wales? confused
As I understand it LE TVR looked at the factory/site in Wales as a possibility and the owners of the site launched a publicity stunt.
So, do TVR actually have a site agreed to build the new car? If they do not then the car is still a long way from being ready.

I. Understood that the initial production will be done at GMD facility, factory only required for full production.

Do the guys who have placed deposits have dates to see the car yet?

Yes, the dates are announced, many sessions on 18/19th, 25/26th of march, but individual time-slots are yet to be determined. That process is underway.

You are very lucky individuals, what a treat it is to go to GMD and witness the new car he and his team have designed, it's Britain's last hope for a sports car to outshine the Italian marques!!!!

Tim, you did well not to spill all the beans last year with your undisclosed visit to GMD, smile

Your article in Sprint was a big catalyst for renewed hope in GM & LE vision for the new car, Thank you Tim for reviving the Pheds critics confidence smile
