Old Speckled Hen has an amazing back story. Up until a few months ago I would have said amazing history, but apparently 'back story' is what the hip kids say now. And you have to keep up with modern vernacular. Obviously.

A glimpse inside the most recent start-up car factory, as they make preparations towards production.

Uncle Les might think, goodness that looks expensive, so presumably the Rassau factory might be a little less automated, but modern car production methods no longer follow Morgan's antique system.

Although it's all gone very low key since the launch of the prototype Griff, it's interesting to see that Les hasn't thrown in the towel and walked away.

Which he could have done quite easily.

So he's either very determined to produce some type of TVR badged machine, or he's a nutter with too much time on his hands.

I think that he may just do it.

Let's have faith.

Still reckon that he should have started up TVR again by producing a few hundred new Tams, 350s, Griffs and Chims just to get some money in.

Or offering competitive rebuilds / refurbs for existing owners
.

How do you know he hasn't?

Obviously officially he hasn't, but you know...

His recent efforts to jump on the EV bandwagon to produce an EV with a TVR badge would suggest that he's still interested in making some sort of TVR.

Or that he's a nutter with too much time on his hands.

If he makes something with solar panels on the roof then I'll be cross.

Someone on PH must know him.

He may already be amongst us.

Maybe he's Welshbeef rofl.
