TVR Name Recognition
Discussion
With the new Tuscan S being advertised for sale on eBay in Florida, one has to wonder if the purchaser of this car will help increase the name identification of TVR in the US.
Today, I was gassing up my Taimar V8 when a fellow walked over with a silly grin on his face and said:
"I had to come over and see what it(the car) was."
Then, the regular barrage of questions started:
What is it?
A TVR.
A T-B-R???
No...a T-V-R...
What is THAT?
It's what you are looking at!!!
But what is it? (apparently meaning Who Makes it?)
It's a limited production, handmade sportscar built in England.
How long have they been around(the company)?
As long as Ferrari.
Well, it's BEAUTIFUL!!!(first intelligent comment out of his mouth!)
Thank you.
(and then he stood quietly, still with that silly grin on his face, as I fired it up and roared off into the distance.
Will those of us here in the States ever get past that regular line of questions from the uninformed???
I wonder
