bangheadJust come back from overseas after a month and seen a Tuscan that was in for a new clutch before Christmas at our local TVR service centre. Top blokes by the way. Why is the car still in? No clutches available came the reply. What none at all? Absolutely not a single one in the country tried everywhere.
If thats the case were all driving no where pretty soon.

The car is still under warranty, with who I havent a kin clue. Apparantly AP havent made any for a while as its a TVR part/ copyright thing? TVR owe me a 12000 mile service and I dont think I will see that happen this century either. What a kin mess. They should arrest the lot of them for what has happened. Then throw away the key for a few years.
Feel really sorry for the workers who still havent been paid by the Bastards!

Hi Jappo, there is nobody left at TVR/BA now so I don't know how you will get your ECU replaced or repaired until something happens with everything at the factory.
Sorry I cannot help further, I wish I could.

Last time I was in Dream Machines in E. Sussex, they told me that they had clutches in stock.

Also you could take a look at this:

I spoke to AP at the Autosport show and they have clutches sat on the shelf, they certainly have at least one, because it was on their stand at the show. I suspect that as ever the problems centre around AP not being paid. If the workers haven't been paid, would it not be likely that the suppliers are in the same situation? As Ntel says talk to Dom, I'm sure he'll see you right.

Steve.
