The Sun and tomorrows TVR announcement...
Discussion
OK, so I read The Sun occasionally! Apparently tomorrow, Friday 16th June, the 'Motors' pullout in The Sun will run a story about "How this 26-year-old will save TVR".
Just thought, after the other thread re Fin Times and announcements re factory, some of you might be interested. I'll be having a read anyway.

)Pretty good and positive article I thought. Reflects some of what's being said here about the new factory/ies, staying in the Blackpool area for now as that's where the skills are etc... Cerbera replacement pending new V8 and a comment about the Geneva Motor Show in TVR's 60th year next year and something special to mark the event.
Oh and new factory in Squires Gate, wherever that is!

Squires Gate is the southern boundary of Blackpool, separating it from Lytham and St Annes, The name actually derives from the gate that once divided land in the ownership of Squire Cifton of Lytham from the invading hordes of Blackpool. To-day the dotted line in the centre of Squires Gate Lane remains the boundary, but the area is now (slightly) more famous for Blackpool Airport (which is actually in the Fylde Borough Council area!). There are flights to Ireland, and regular helicopter flights to the offshore oil rigs, together with a flourishing flight of private pilots (nicknamed "The Martini Set"
who reputedly whiz off to Ireland or France for Sunday lunch. My own experience of the airport is limited to a honeymoon to Jersey (now too many years ago) where a plane called a Dart Herald (The sort with a propeller and a long twisted rubber band down the middle of the aisle between the seats) bumped us along on the start of married life. Land adjacent to the airport is now also being developed as an edge of town commercial and retail park.
