Thought I'd contact them using the interactive bit of the website a few days ago

Has anyone else tried it and got a reply? or do I need to sign up with the Patron Saint of lost causes...

My interest was in helping them to overcome TVRs traditional Achilles heel - pretty poor leadership. The cars were great, (I should know I've got three) the engineering was pretty good - but the factory management wasn't always stellar and every TVR exec I ever spoke to acknowledged this.

I was trying to bring to their attention the existence of a (closing today) Government scheme which would have given them a grant to get some decent support from people who have a lot of experience with SME business.

I got the impression they weren't very interested. I hope I'm wrong, but the fact you are a brilliant chassis engineer for example does not automatically mean that you are also brilliant at sorting out leadership and motivation issues in the fab.shop! None of us is perfect and cheap help should never be dismissed out of hand
