The only supplier I know of is HS Productions who haven't done one for two years. Does anyone know of an alternative and if not, Ted there might be an opening there for next year I'm sure you've got enough good pics and there are plenty of people on the site who could order with their own company logos 100+ at a time, possible even some of the dealers. (You'd need to do a "tit's out" and a "non tits out" version for me, being in engineering we can still get away with that sort of thing)

I'm working on a calendar with pictures of Shorty's Cerbera during the 24 Hours of Spa. Mail me off line for details.

Top suggestion! My young daughter went out looking for one last year for my christmas present - knew I was potty about TVRs. Couldn't find one so came home with a Porsche calendar instead

Well (good dad that I am) it's been on my study wall all year though it tends to stay open on the October page which has a delicious dark blue 911 Carrera Cabrio from 98.

If there's no TVR calendar again this year what might she come back with this time? OMG, is there an MG one?

How about a different model for each month... starting with the likes of the Vixen etc, rises through the Wedges and S series, Griff, Chim, Cerbie etc to Tuscan and Tamora...

.. oh and make it "seasonal" too... so the December car is going sideways through snow, the september one kicking up some autumnal leaves etc etc...

We had this discussion last year. The reason that whatstheirname productions stopped making them was because they weren't selling. Admittedly they were expensive at £30+ but they were good quality.

We did a PDF version of a calendar last year for people to download and print themselves. Might do that again nearer the time.

Any PH members in the printing business?

And a damn fine addition to the cubicle it has been (if only in B&W)! Think that's a great idea and doesn't run the risk of going to high costs without being sure of your return, Ted.

Two thoughts:
1. TVRCC does calendars (or did last time I looked). A bit tame but OK.

2. My brother's a printer...

Yes, they will be downloadable and I'll see if I can get a few printed in full colour/laminated to buy in the shop if there's demand.

Where are you getting the pics from....?

Perhaps a bit daft...but put up a selection of owners pics, and let the readers vote on the top 12 for the calendar. Certainly you've got the software to do that, but whether the idea is daft or not, you're the expert.

FWIW I printed last years on a 1440dpi Inkjet onto photo-paper and its hanging on my office wall - most people who have commented assumed it was a shop job...

Stand back and admire - creative directorial genius at work. This would be a great way to do it. Ted, you've just got to try this......
