I think that's an excellent car. Good looking. A powerful and well proven reliable engine. Reasonably priced. Just the sort of formula that made TVR the marque to kill for in the 90s.

I'd expect to see their order books filling up at about the same rate as the TVR ones empty....

Does any one know if the roof will be the manual folding type or a removable panel like the TVR's. It's a real pain to have to stop and arse about with the roof panel in TVR's

Manual folding type. Just undo a couple of clips above the screen and push it back - although there is a cover to clip on after if you want it to look tidier.

Thanks graham,

That is good news.

I've had two convertables, an Honda S2000 with electric roof, you could put the roof up and down in about 12 seconds or something, really quick and easy and no leaks what so ever, great car for the money.

Also had a TVR Tamora, the roof was removable panel type which you stored in the boot,a total pain. Rain seemed to come in at various points with the roof on anyway and you had no space to store anything in the boot with the panel off. Totally crap design.
