Dutch design student "revives" TVR

Think he's missed it with this, doesn't scream TVR to me more Weissman.

Nice 1/4 clay model though.

Should TVR ever return there are certainly enough talented young designers at Coventry or the RCA that generate some very interesting designs, it's where the Tusacan came from.

re-sits at the end of the year I think!

thats no tvr in my eyes.

[Popsaab]

Wow. It's a girl's car ! not a TVR, maybe a Barbie's one !

[Mr Heathen]

WTF is that!? Dutch student!? I think I'd leave the shmoke alone if I were him...

Absolutely ghastly & an insult to the name.

[angry jock]

Oh dear he really doesnt get it does he
personally cant see any TVR design characteristic in that...

Umm I dont know, he's sort of got the essence of TVR with a couple of well known shapes in there......

Squint a bit and the front end is not disimmilar to a Griffith and the back is pretty close to a Tuscan. Like a Griffith, its smooth, no sticky out bit (inc. mirrors which might be an issue for the old TVA though by the time TVR or the student actually get round to building it we'll probably have in-built TV cameras on the door pods instead).

I sort of like it, its bold and makes a statement though, personally, for such a radical shape the dash (lots of pics of the dash) seems almost tame by comparison. I'd say a B+ for effort.

I think it's an unremarkable blob...so many on the road now.

There's a lot more to designing a car than drawing (or moulding) a shape.

Rather a lot of engineering involved.

Personally I've been messing around 'designing' cars since I was a little kid, many of which I'd like to think were nicer than that one.

At least I managed to get short-listed for the Vauxhall Young designer of the year' competition.
