enter TVR into the prorietor field, and then follow the blackpool automotive link and it looks like the "TVR" trade mark was assigned to a company in Liechtenstein on the 21st February 2 days after they applied for the TVR Italia trademark....basically the TVR trademark is no longer in Britain

Probably this lot: 'TeleVisiun Rumantscha'.
TV stations would be covered by those references.
No, it's a company called Muadib Stiftung who don't even have a website.
Here's the assignment of the TVR trademark from Blackpool Automotive to Muadib Stiftung:

Muadib Stiftung sounds like a guy's name, actually.Dunno, but the anagram generator churns out the following,
BAD UNIT SMUG FIT
FIAT SUBMIT DUNG
SUIT FUND GAMBIT
USA BUT MIND GIFT
AUSTIN DUMB GIFT
and my favourite...........
MIDAS BUTT FUNGI

MUADIB BETEILIGUNG GMBH is the ultimate owner of TVR by the following connections:
MUADIB BETEILIGUNG GMBH
|
|-TVR MOTORS COMPANY LTD
|
|-BLACKPOOL AUTOMOTIVE LTD (*old info, of course*)
|
|-TVR CARS DISTRIBUTION LTD
| |
| |-TVR DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT LTD
| |-DOMS POWER LTD
|
|-SILICATE SYSTEMS LTD
So we seem to be collecting a small family of MUADIBs... Muadib is a character from Dune...
So does NS see himself as a God?

"There are a variety of political and religious concepts throughout the Dune novels that varies so much through the novels which makes it a complex and cogitative science fiction series. The Dune novels are popular with many fans and partly this is due because of its political and religious structures. This essay will be focussing primarily on the first four Dune novels written by Frank Herbert.
In the first novel, the Qizarate is composed of missionaries and is a religious body that carries Muad'dib's religion across the universe (Herbert Dune Messiah 8). Muad'dib is a character in three of the Dune novels and originally was named Paul Atreides who was heir to the Atreides throne of power. After living on a planet called Arrakis also known as Dune, the Fremen renamed him Muad'dib after they accepted him into their society. The Fremen are native people that had lived on Arrakis for a long time but were never political or religious leaders of the planet as they were mostly detached from off world influence. The Qizarate maintains control of the planets it occupies with Muad'dib's religion. The population of the universe see Muad'dib as their god whether they like it or not and they can not deny his power religiously."

You've kinda lost the thread here boys, my initial point was the TVR trademark has been moved abroad ie. no longer British!! and NS has got away with doing it without any kind of announcement or press coverage, just a thread on PH thats now descending into a discussion about dune films!
