For all,

Looking for 'special' TVRs - one offs, rare TVRs, race TVRs, Tyhoon, T440 - if you can help and would not mind putting your car on display during the Neil Garner Open Day, I would love to hear from you. Of course ALL other TVRs and members are welcome, just wanting special / rare models to be at the forefront of the show. Here is a press release, I have put out which may interest you....



The Wiltshire TVR Car Club already have a busy events diary planned for 2012 and one of the main events for TVR enthusiasts far and wide will be the Neil Garner TVR Open Day at the Kemble Business Park (SN16 9SH) on the A429 Wiltshire / Gloucestershire border. This will be held on Easter Saturday – April 7th 2012.

Former F1 race mechanic to Alonso, Neil is well known by all TVR enthusiasts in the West Country with cars coming from far south as Somerset and Dorset and far north as the Midlands for servicing and repairs. He has held 'full house' open days for his customers in the past during the Easter period, just before the motor racing season gets under way.

However, next year aims to be his biggest Open Day yet, this time incorporating the assistance of the Wiltshire TVR car club members. New for next year will be the best in TVR trade stands - So far committed are: D&C Trim from Blackpool, Crazyhorses racing (rolling road) TVR radio and alarm specialist, Carl Baker; Fibreon, ACT, Classic Additions and Roger Morris, famous for his Surrey Roofs for Griffs and Chims to name but a few.

Organiser of the event, Paul Stallard, who owns a Griffith 500 says, 'We are honoured to have top names in the TVR circles, like D&C Trim, Carl Baker and many more who come from north and south of the country to be with us on Easter Saturday. We want TVR enthusiasts to come and meet the specialists. From cows leather to more horse power, it will all be there!'

Before coming to the Cotswolds to service Blackpool's finest, together with Lamborghinis, Ferraris, Lotus and Porsches, Neil had been privileged to work with such stars like Fernando Alonso, witnessing his very first F1 race win through to a fantastic 2005 championship battle.

Besides all the TVRs Neil services, modifies and repairs, he will have three of his race prepared cars on display as well, the Mosler, the Porsche 997 and the latest addition, the Formula Le Mans.

All models of TVRs are welcome and it is hoped that a few of the rare and special TVRs will take pride of place on the day for all to see.

For further info you can contact either Neil on 01666 577449 or Paul Stallard on 07715 770244

Shame. I suspect that is too early to have got the car out of storage. It's in the Cotswolds so if I actually get my arse in gear for once I'd love to pop along.

Don't worry the Stallard’s always seem to have a way with organising the weather, the sun always seems to shine on the righteous smile

Yes - ordering the sun as part of the package!! Easter Saturday is looking good - some more positive developments have happened since we last spoke. Awaiting clearence from the drivers before I can reveal! Hoping to lay on another event in conduction with the Open Day. All will be revealers soon. Watch this space!
