The update if kept secret again will clearly be ‘sorry for the delay, please keep the faith, we are making good progress with conversations about stuff that we haven’t yet started’. They won’t be secretly announcing funding secured and/or firm plans to get cars on the road. In fact they won’t be saying that at all.

They said they were positively surprised that the last one didn't make it neither here nor to FB and kindly asked to keep it that way (well knowing that they couldn't do anything about it about it anyway). Sounds reasonable to me and i honor that.
What a ridiculous charade
Some pretty revolutionary advertising an PR techniques going on here with TVR, it’s a wonder they’re struggling for investors and deposits and . . er positive PR.

So in summary, there’s nothing even approaching good news to reveal.

It’s like watching a lesson in how not to launch a new product.

Whilst blindly ignoring the lack of EV infrastructure, where a lot of the power comes from in the first place and the massive environmental cost of producing the batteries.

But hey, instant acceleration, am I right?

(Yes, all those issues are resolvable, but not quickly with the oil companies pulling it back.
Writing off an excellent yet still very much emerging technology against one that’s so mature it’s facing death. Kodak, Polaroid, Blockbuster, HMV, Nokia, etc are right there with you. wink

If it was positive it wouldn’t be secret - they’d shout it from the rooftops and try to get more deposits.
This. It’s embarrassing from TVR and actually is making me turn from being a huge fan to being anti them. Pathetic. I don’t want to be anti TVR but they’re not covering themselves in glory. Eejits

Dear TVR Deposit Holders
This message will self destruct in 20 seconds so you need to be really quick!!
Just a very quick update regarding the progress of your orders. Unfortunately we haven't been able to get Mr Jones and his brothers on site as he now wants the materials for the refurbishment job paying up front. This has come totally out of the blue as we didn't envisage him to be so unreasonable especially after we told him that further investment was imminent in September 2017. We have offered him a free helicopter ride, a sit in the Rebellion, and even a years supply of our biscuits but to no avail. Unless we can get over this major hurdle, I'm sorry, but the project is doomed.
Best regards

Agree, I was never very pro the project, but have to say I only read this thread now in the hope of reading the announcement of its permanent demise
