What's happened to TVR1???

[Urgent Harry]

Word on the street is he's gone.

Martin are you sure you are recently joined? You seem to know quite a bit for someone with only 2 posts?

[Urgent Harry]

New to posting but not to PH and the motor industry, it's not what you know... (and I did only hear that he's gone, hence the Q)

Is anyone surprised?

[alloypearltam]

Has he gone or is it the showroom that is gone?

I heard that Chiswick was definately closing.

[whitey]

the problem with the Chiswick showroom is that is looks like it's closed anyway.

You drive past and barely see the cars or TVR signs....what you do see are big advertising boards for Orange mobiles or whatever....before the showroom opened TVR were advertising the Sagaris on these boards and you could not fail to miss the showroom....now you only see if the lights happen to be red and you glance to your left...

ALL IMHO.

cheers

Agree with what Whitey said, looks deserted and when you get in there theres hardly ever any cars on display anyway...

TVR Centre are much better IMHO...

By Giles or one of the service guys ??

If so give him a call, i have his number here if you need it...

I bought my 1st TVR from a dealer BECAUSE i was treated so badly, treated just like you were, i went back the next day and paid for it on my Card to the MD of the dealership, he even deducted the guys commision from the sale to teach the guy a lesson, apparently he never did it again

I won't even go there,i'll be binned
Lets just say when I popped in a couple of years later to say gidday to Peter and found out he was no longer there I enquired about the "Ohlin kit", Quote,"It was to exspensive"
I'll think they'll find it has devoloped somewhat since then.

Not till you spill the beanz...

[tvr1]

Not many beanz to spill, Im afraid.Besides, I was at a very late party last night so the brain isnt working so well today.Suffice it to say that TVR and I have parted company in the most amicable of ways and I wish all the staff, dealers and customers(especially those who purchased from myself at Chiswick) the very best for the future.
