I went into my local BP connect petrol station today and whilst browsing around the shop i noticed they had on display a TVR official merchandise penlight torch thingy in a presentation pouch did not have price on it though so not sure how much,
just wondered if anyone else had seen them in there local BP and had they bought one.
There was a couple less in the display box so presumably bought by someone.........any TVR wanabees driving around with a TVR torch in there glovebox

I got one for Christmas.

Not sure where it came from.

Seems to work fine, but isn't the same quality as a maglite.

Nothing has dropped off it yet and it's probably brighter and half the price of the Porsche one

Don't think they do sell the Halfords brand, just some of the same stock lines...

Hmmm.

Torch - long, hard, cylindrical object.

"Orgasmic Living" - thankfully short-lived slogan of TVR.

I saw some Sagaris-shaped torches in a TVR branded package in Halfords the other day. Pressed the button and LEDs shone through the headlights.

Also there was a TVR branded mini-tool thingy which was interesting. Might have bought it, too, if it had actually had an allen key thingy to fit the allen bolts on the TVR... It was 10 quid reduced from 15.

Sounds like normal (new car) TVR depreciation
