Fellow TVR Owners

Sorry to bring this old chestnut up again, but after the initial "TVR has been sold to McLaren" story it has now all gone very quiet. I am confused..

So has TVR been sold or not?

Cheers, and sorry
Mike

Actually, I have just heard on the grapevine that Reliant have just bought TVR out for 15 million pounds, and are planning on introducing a three wheeled version of a Red rose Tuscan in time for the next Paris car show......

But don't tell anyone, it's all hush hush........
