Curiosity has got the better of me. There's a place visible from the B3006 near Selborne that regularly has upwards of 8 or more TVRs lying around that look well looked after including plenty of Sags plus the occasional old Jag, and a bunch of ramps inside. There's no company name and searches online reveal nothing. Someone here must know what this place is...

Could that be TVR 101?

Edited to add: apparently not TVR 101, according to the following post.

I pass this place twice a day to and from work and has always grabbed my attention. I finish early today and if I remember I may stop by. They seem to be a garage or workshop and start early, its not the place linked above though. They do seem to be very TVR orientated, I may go ask them if they would work on my lowly MR2 haha.

From what one of them said, the manager I believe he was they are waiting for their new premises in mill lane Alton to be ready as they moved from ash vale. So this is a temporary place for now. Seem like decent guys very knowledgeable about jags and TVR which is their main dealings and used to sell them too and are hoping to again. The other guy has been to one of the meets at the west meon hut as he is a biker too and goes across the road. They are, in their words "reassuringly expensive" especially for TVR and jag. They have a wheel balancing machine, one of only ten in the country allegedly that people travel a long way to use as it will give a perfect balance.
All in all decent guys.

Good stuff, thanks for that! They've never been budget conscious... Always good to have another handy quality TVR specialist though, especially one right on my commute. Really do need to get the Cerb back on the road...

Happy to help, like I said in my first reply, I pass them every day and it has always caught my eye so I was happy to have an excuse to go have a nose around. Some nice cars behind the doors.
The manager also said that the stig (whichever incarnation it was) used to work for them...

I drove past them last Tuesday, spotted a Griff and Sagaris outside and what looked like another inside on a ramp. Been trying to work out who they are ever since! Guess I should have thought to look on here sooner!
