I think they're making 10 a year. There was an interview with the boss in Evo magazine a few months back.
Are you for real? if so i would suggest researching into the subject that you wish to comment on

I don't know how I could research Noble production numbers more than going on what their boss says.

They're probably down at the Jaguar dealership buying an F-type which actually exists...
If they've lost there balls over the years and want a mainstream soft tarts car.
I really hope this new lot don't take out what made the Tvr appeal to people.

So I've had an email from TVR. Explaining the deposit idea.

No more details on the car but the deposit is refundable.

Assuming the company stays solvent - I hope they do, of course, just being cynical.

Deposits will of course be refundable... until the day the liquidators letter lands on your doormat.

I hate being negative - I just think this is too early to be parting with any cash. I'd love to take a punt on one though!

Is it being kept in a client account separating the company assets from any depositor?

I'd say its fair play to anyone who wants to get ont elist , a nice feelign of anticipation and feeling ' part of it'

personally I'd need to see a bit more of the finished article before parting with my cash, the quality of the manufacturing partners isn't in any doubt but they do need to release some better and more detailed images of how its going to look

I think they're well aware that most of their market won't put a deposit down with such sparse info, so they're making a call out to the few that will. I'm sure there are some rich loons around and some diehards left!

Did anyone ever order/buy the V8 Perana Z-one? They were busy talking about limiting production to 99 cars a year. So far as I can gather that's about 99 more than they've sold.

"By 2012 Superformance partnered with AC Cars and the Perana was renamed the AC 378 GT Zagato." Wikipedia

It's a dangerous path.

I didn't get one of those, just a receipt for my payment.
