Hi All,

I just saw this on the TVR site in the Noise section, seems like the next step is being taken. Sorry if this has been posted before

The link to the webpage isnt fully functioning yet it seems

Looks like it was a site test that was opened too early,
Or my eternal optimism is making me see things

Two types of dealer Heritage and Performance

Heritage focused on sales service standard cars utilising standard TVR parts
Performance dealers that may use third party power and performance upgrade parts

It looks like many current TVR specialists were in the network from the wording, but the link to the dealer list didn't work

If I'm dreaming it was a pretty thorough dream

From what I have heard not many - if any of the originals have signed up?

From what I understand no one has. The terms were not conjunctive to join.

I cannot speak for everyone, but majority of folks have not.

Correct. Enjoyed an enlightening convo last week with those in the know. Surprised at the way 'new' TVR have approached this.

I have heard that only one has and they have a colour in their name, others have refused because of the terms as you say

Who in their right mind would signup to a commercial suicide contract that states you must buy ALL parts & consumables from TVR Parts Ltd (Racing Green) who actually are selling chinese and aftermarket parts as TVR Genuine Heritage, then TVR want to charge extortionate monthly fees to get any discount.

Forgone conclusion

Feel free to ask any questions.

On first impressions it looks as though the existing 'dealers' were seen as the revenue stream to finance the bigger plans? Seems a little presumptious?

Presumptuous to think they had any plans maybe?
Maybe they've employed folk to advise them and then been advised of the cost to build a new car by those employed so got rid...
Sounds.....familiar....
But that's maybe presuming too?

By chance I was looking on the IPO website for something at work and by mistake clicked on the latest Journal and found several Trade Marks being applied for that match what was seen on the website, TVR Network Member Heritage, TVR Network Member Performance, Also there was TVR Official Merchandise Heritage, TVR Authorised accessory Heritage, TVR Genuine Part Heritage.







Makes sense to bring out official merchandise to bring a few pounds in, i'm sure they would sell a few bits to owners if it is good quality.

Was quite interesting looking at the journal, looks like ASDA might be thinking of changing their logo too!
