New TVR still under wraps! (Vol. 2)

[m4tti]

Question is will it arrive before the cyber truck, will it manage to be as quick as the cyber truck.

It’s a proper monster.

Times are a changing.

wonder what the cd (aerodynamic factor) is on that compared to the TVR?

or looking at the figures they are not bothered by the extra mileage or performance it would give

Good point. I prefer the front end of the cyber truck. Things like this make the new Griffith look even more dated.

Maybe TVR are aiming to be the new Morgan

Not exactly. They have appointed Jones for their fit out. That not necessarily the same as have the buildings in a readied state to 2nd fix (which is where JTB should trot up).

Is a massive pain in the hoop, but as always let us be armed with all the phacts so that considered jusldgements can be made.

The main contractor was selected by the Welsh Govt in June '19 but can't find out why there are delays in work starting.

And TVR have kept absolute silence about starting work at another facility so that looks to be a complete dead end.

Honestly ? I mean really ? I get you don't like the TVR, but this ? No way.

[m4tti]

It looks raw, aggressive, purposeful and of its time.

Having said that, chuck the new Griffiths tail lights on that Tesla and it wouldn’t look that wrong.

This is the whole problem with the new TVR design. It’s neither one thing or another.

I think it has a touch of awesomeness about it. Who the fk reads “thechive” anyway. You have way too much time on you hands

Nor me, but should you wish to, then do your due Dilligence & get some sage advice.

It tells you something when the thread about the "new TVR" is actually more concerned with an Electric pick-up truck from a completely different manufacturer! Come on TVR, either actually get this project back on track or put everyone out of their missery and kill it!

Unfortunately it’s irrelevant wether the TVR front is good/bad/indifferent. Might as well be comparing a unicorn versus a cart horse for rideability

I hope they don’t kill it! Then the thread’s over and any chance of any new tvrs appearing along with it.

If the Tvr was fast enough to be up the chuff of that Fezza it’s laughing smile would take on a whole new meaning

I’m fairly confident that old mustang engine won’t compete with the 800hp + Ferrari unit... ever.

Maybe if they attach said mustang engine to an umbrella it would make a faster contraption than the Ferrari
