does anyone know anything else on Les Edgar buying TVR?
I haven't found anything on them after that.
My favorite marque, I was so sad to see it go.

Alas not. The website is the same as it was months ago.
It takes a long time to produce a car though, so there's still hope. I'm a big fan of TVR as well :)

Yeah, it was only a few months ago that he bought them right? He said they had planned to be ready by 2015, and I have a lot more hope with him than I had with the playboy billionaire.

According to AutoCar they're just about to open a new R&D plant and could begin production in 2-3 years. There's a Q&A with Edgar on that page as well.

Definitely. I can't wait to see what they release. Hopefully it'll live up to the bonkers nature of TVR :)

Were they not just going to be a repair and upgrade service of some sort. Not actually making cars, just maintaining them and upgrading engine ECUs, etc.... There was talk a few months back and someone found an article to that effect, but ye', nothing has been heard since.
