60k already on the test mule.
Where have they been testing this (THE MOON)
Surely someone must have spied the test mule.

This, apparently, is installed in a Cerbera mule.
My son lives in Whiteley (near Fareham, Hants) and a few weekends ago cruised around the Parkway business park. Couldn't see any TVR logo on the office units at 9400 though.

The registered address for TVR Automotive / TVR Manufacturing is:Nick
Wentworth House 4400 Parkway, Whiteley, Hampshire, PO15 7FJ
Google Streetview 2015:
'Menzies LLP' are an accountants - could it be that the registered address is just where the accounts are held / managed, and that's why no mention of TVR specifically?
I'm not sure how it all works to be honest, just spit-balling.
What are the prospective build numbers, how many deposits have been taken?
Styling, engine performance is all subjective..some will love, some will always hate.. Personally i think it's just great TVR are back.. I tell as many people as possible as nearly all assume TVR died never to return...or worse, have never heard of TVR!!

There has been no spotted yet, but it was postulated last year that the Cerbera's used for the Merc/Mac SLR mule could be brought back for the new TVR as mules too. They had the front chassis widened to take the Merc lump and front side exhausts back in the day.. keep em peeled... This, apparently, is installed in a Cerbera mule.

They were silver but no guaranty they still are. I tried to find out what the registration numbers were to help with the spotting but to no avail.
re Whiteley, that is as far as I know the registered address and is no more than a postal drop.

Really intrigued to know what the real mule is though. Can't be something staid as that would just be putting mileage on the engine and to be honest in this day and age you can do that with a running programme in an engine load cell.
So through a bit spontaneity and boredom I decided to fly back to the UK from Spain to check it out on Sunday. Was surprised how small the show was but felt it was worth it.
Seemed off the top of my head and in my opinion that a lot of Tvrs potential market competitors were there (minus Porsche I think). And I think they did themselves proud. Good to see LE on the stand and willing to talk to everyone. Good to see the heritage of the brand on display and not just one of the more modern ones (thinking back and comparing to the classic car show in birmingham).
I think one of the better moments for me was being the other side of the hall and over hearing someone say they had just put their deposit down that day. The marketing must be working in some way. Best of luck to TVR!

Since the first TVR Rebirth photos from Autocar I fell in love with the side view (especially the rear) of the car. But now it looks different under wraps. Design taste is different. But I hope for the the first real release of the car. And the most important thing is that tvr will come back on the road and will shuffle the cards of Sportscar new.
