sad news but at least the workers now know where they stand

Lets just hope they get a payout they deserve and not some government minimum......

Bugger. Sad news. Still if Automedon can take on another couple of units they could set up a manufacturing plant in competition with the redundant staff

Well I guess Mr Anderson - it's inevitable..

They were laid off a while bad and the sales have not picked up..
and once again it looks like TVR are not paying bills..

The first sign is always parts supply dries up.

Talked with a TVR dealer and an indy today and both were having difficulties getting parts from TVR.

Needless to say - both try hard to source from else where as no one likes to turn work away but they both had done this.

Silly season again.

Sorry to hear about the redundencies but at least they ll get some money out of it .What does seem strange is that nearly all the people who have gone are first build ,ie body shop, primer,paint and welding shop.The numbers left in these areas could,nt possible produce anything but a handful of rolling chassis a week.Yet the main assembaly line numbers remain the same? Reading between the lines id have a guess that the cars will be partly built at another site as noble do then completed back at blackpool, but as the moving date is nearly upon them time will tell.

I thought this was already stated - I've certainly heard that they were being built by the same people that Noble use?!
