Like the title says, the reason that I have asked is that I have already had notification of interesting TVRs aiming for Wiltshire on Easter Saturday 070411 meet at Neil Garner's Open Day (Wanna know more info - refer to the TVR Events page and scroll down to the Cotswolds Easter Meet, all will be revealed there).

Some of the owners of the rare TVR models have said 'Yes' to this event already - and to link up with the owner of the White Elephant would be fab. The last I heard of it, I believe was, it was still up in Blackpool - being re-trimmed and/or being resprayed. If the owner, or if some one could point me in the right direction of the owner so I could ask if it could be possible to have the White Elephant on show there - that would be brilliant - Again a question of if you don't ask.....

As soon as more confirmations have been made - I will keep you all updated. But in one week of asking for certain cars and trade stands - it has already been a very promising week! Roll on Easter!

I was speaking to Howard the other day and hopefully things should be moving a bit better soon. He has had problems with the engine rebuild and that has pretty well delayed everything - I'll not go into more detail as I think he has done an update for Sprint which should appear before too long.

Hi Paul - as Jim mentioned we have had issues with the engine and there are a few words in Sprint Magazine this month expanding on that, so Easter is doubtful, but we do intend having her out sometime next summer.

As soon as she's finished we will try to get round as many events as we can.

Cheers - Howard
