Jesus.. He is a fiery one! Cremate TVR and scatter the ashes in the IOM? We all understand the frustration, but that's a bit much. His blogs on TVR make interesting reading

I've just done a bit more digging.
The applicant of the 'TVR Engineering' trademark is listed as Fabio Cardoni, so not the same name.
However, if we look at other trademarks owned by the same person we see a company called 'The Black Douglas Motorcycle Co'
If we vist their website we see the business address of that company is the same as Gianluca's business.
That's a bit of a co-incidence isn't it?
Have checked on Linked in and is the same guy - worth readingThe applicant of the 'TVR Engineering' trademark is listed as Fabio Cardoni, so not the same name.

Dear Gianluca
I know you are reading this, as since the link to your blog was posted here it has been closed to invited readers only...
Had you made the statement below on the TVR Cars FB Page (or here on PH) instead of being antagonistic and banning everyone who requested you to confirm your intentions... I would have wished you the best of luck and supported the sentiment, which I know is shared by many here.
The following is a Google translation from a section of Gianluca's blog:
"Bristol Avenue that do not remain nothing but empty warehouses or re-let or other activities. many technicians and workers have moved to do service and repairs to existing TVR, and there are many, to improve the components were almost always keep them for as icons.
The reality is that the TVR is not dead, indeed, many of them dream of return, but the problem is always the young Russian, who has in his pocket marchietto of 3 letters. Which will? When she does? No one knows.
Meanwhile, I have not stopped loving the TVR, absolutely among the most fun car in the world, at an affordable price. In this regard in the coming months will offer new fans. for now I can not say anything more, just tell you to follow me that something will happen, Russian or non-Russian spirit reborn

I'm just wondering if this guy is contemplating making Kit Cars...... I only say that as his website states he has made a Mossler..... surely Mossler make Mosslers', so his must be a kit car/copy...
maybe I'm reading to much into it.
His business is assembling kits if you look at the gallery of past projects.maybe I'm reading to much into it.

Did not read all 20 odd pages, however the guy is a member on this forum too
Yea we know, he's commented on stuff posted because he's not happy with pistonheaders posting pics off his site when he has done the same thing in reverse, irony does not transcend language barriers that easily it seemshttp://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/profile.asp?h=0...
Also, have just put a message out on facebook...to let people make their own minds
