I am very grateful for the invitation to have a look at these cars a fantastic opportunity to say the least ! These cars in particular the Speed 12 Turbo are obviously not labelled TVR , nevertheless their pedigree to me is beyond question having being designed/adapted ( interpreted as the website would describe )and crafted by dedicated enthusiastic engineers and artisans from the Blackpool factory ( including paint and trimming )......... the Speed 12 Turbo is a worthy evolution of the TVR Speed 12 and to me is the embodiment of what a TVR of today should be ...............I hope the team enjoy the success they deserve ............ I better start saving my pocket money !

Completely different chassis, I didn't expect that, nothing like the original cars.

Any info. on structural rigidity? Can't see much triangulation in that type of design. Any info. on who designed it?

Just curious.

You would need to speak to Mike Vernon , but he did say John Ravenscroft had been involved in the tuning/ecu mapping on the Aston engine smile .

JR did some of the work on mine originally. Engine is a very different set up though, as far as I know.
