They made national press when they were published! These were photos of the Longbridge plant after closure. Are there any pictures of the TVR factory?

The more you look at these photo's, the more I realise the full horror of the TVR situation.

How a company with such talent could be purchased by a young lad with no motoring / engineering experience is beyond belief. But for that lad to be so unopen to ideas and to appoint the HR director as MD leaves me cold. NS doesn't appear the be an a Branson in any way but IMHO a very dicatorial boss with limited ability and track record. Maybe if he'd had to make his fortune in the first place, he'd be a better owner IMO.

I know several pH'ers have pointed out that business is business, but at some point with certain companies the owners are more guardians than owners - TVR should have been one of those companies.

PW and his team created fanastic cars, but in the end he has destroyed his own legacy. If he was smart enough to ensure he owned the property but should take greater care to ensure the marque remained in safe hands.
