It would appear that no one likes it, so what about some ideas for a Viable alternative?

I would avoid a tag line altogether. They're just so open to mickey taking whenever something goes wrong. In fact the only one I can think of that is remotely successful is Audi's "Vorsprung Durch Wotsit" and that's because most people (including me) don't actually know what it means...

Maybe it's because for umpteen years BMW have called there product "the ultimate driving machine" with the intention of eveybody believeing it,
This must be what TVR have in mind with their slogan.

"Foward with technology"

Interestingly i remember seeing some thing on Discovery where good old Adolf is giving a speach and actually comes out with this , i wonder if Audi is aware of that

Well that's still good, even in English, because it isn't making outlandish claims about the product.

I'd be happy with "TVR - Mad in Britain"

How about

"TVR....HuuuUUUuuuUUUHHHH" with a holographic thrusting crotch that thrusts as you walk past it.

Didn't they used to use "British Beef" to describe TVRs?

With all the problems there have been with beef recently, might it not be appropriate for the old slogan to be reinstated?

Cheers
