Tvr
Judging by todays news we might be losing TVR in it's current form. There is a strong possibilty that the Blackpool factory will be closed and the staff laid off. What next - if anything for TVR?

They have a planning application in for a new factory in Blackpool for a while now, perhaps the announcement that they are giving up the lease on the current factory (for which, BTW, they are rumoured to be paying Peter Wheeler £10k a week rent for) is just a plot to focus the minds of the local planning department.

I hope so - they are making very few cars at the moment.

There is a rumour flying around also that production is being moved out to Russia to be nearer it's Russian owners, but as I say this is just a rumour and nothing else.
