Facebook?

[NicBowman]

Hi, daft question I suspect. Someone mentioned Facebook is quite active for TVR discussion, but which site? I seem to have found at least 6!

Thx.

Pretty sure it depends on which clique will let you join

Loads of TVR related Facebook pages. The majority are very active, full of l great advice etc..

Just search TVR on Facebook. I have never had an issue joining any of the pages I want to, be that the Car Club ones TVRCC Blackpool thunder or the model specific pages.

The "official" Club Facebook forum allows any (paid-up) member to join/post.

Then, you have myriad model groups and sub-groups - that are nothing to do with the club, but are handy for information exchange.. TBH, I'm a bit bored with Facebook now....maybe it's my inability to adjust my profile to filter out the inane Tik-Tok re-posts and advertisements for driveways/garage doors/fill in as appropriate!!

I still think Pistonheads is one of the best platforms to share information.....All IMHO.

The main ones I frequent are:

"TVR Torque - TVRCC" - has around 2.5k members

"TVR Tuscan owners group" - has around 2.4k members

"TVR Chimaera owners and enthusiasts" - has around 3.6k members.

There individual groups for the other TVR models too, with a bit of cross posting.

The model-specific pages in particular are superb, always very active and loads of useful info / discussion. A couple of times when I've ran into issues when out in the car, I've been able to get multiple potential answers to the problem / offers of assistance within minutes- it's like having a second breakdown service!

Additionally, seeing constant pictures of people out enjoying their pride and joy serves as a constant motivation use the cars regularly

Lots of FB groups but many are aimed at a particular model or era, join them all initially and weed out any that are irrelevant or not very active.

Exactly this, an absolute gold mine of information available.

Hi Nic,
The TVR Griffith Facebook site has 1600 members and plenty of helpful members, as here as well, and useful files etc. Just another resource and place of banter. Bob
