If anyone is interested here are the pictures of my factory visit on Thursday 11th March. If you know your order number then look out for your car if I got a picture of it as the number will be on the body!

Thanks to PH member, Luca Brazzi, for hosting this for me on his great site: www.sleepy-fish.com/factorytourmar2004.htm

If you wonder what’s on the front of our car its just masking tape, a frequently used item at TVR it appears!



Regards

Simon

There are some bits you dont see, engine assembly and design, but I dare say if you asked them they may allow it. They certainly tell you to bring a camera and even tell you whats a good kodak moment! They are extemely enthusiastic about you coming along to see the whole process. If you own a TVR then give Lisa a call as the factory, no matter the age of your car, all owners are welcome.

As for sagaris, I did not see any sign of it or its body, but in the fibre glass construction area its hard to tell whats what because the moulds are huge.

The Sagaris is in bits at the moment as they are taking the templates from it to start the first build.

looks like some of these cars have been practice for graffiti artists. Quite strange

The factory seems as big a shambles as ever. I find it amazing that the cars come out so well at the other end!
