Build quality, fah, we don't need no stinkin build quality
But really, when all their parts are built in-house by such a small company (and the whole car is so spectacular), such an insignificant flaw can be easily overlooked, IMHO.

At a minimum of £40k a pop, i sure as hell care about build quality. How would you feel if an indicator stalk came off in your hand?

Well, considering that GM hasn't fixed this exact same problem for any of their cars, plus many more (ie, panel gaps that rival the grand canyon), you have to give credit to TVR for making it themselves. And besides, if the turn signal brakes, just take the corner fast enough to not disturb other traffic

I remember my friend selling A Jensen, but I dont know what type.
TVR has a great reputation, a bit like a less extreme version of lotus, but a slightly bigger then that. The new TVR's aren't looking as nice as they used to though. Chimera for me any day, or perhaps a tuscan. |

Move to europe, that's what I'm doing! If you've been following US politics, you'll realise this continent is a sinking boat
Damn the excessively wealthy! JSB, this doesn't include you, you at least have the sense to buy wonderful autos!

Shock Horror! Did no-one buy them?
I suppose it adds value to the cars though! |

That is so sad. The workers probably had them for free (I hope), to make up for it.

indeed.... though most of these people end up moving to another cottage (or normal) manufacturer, theyre hired for their competency so you can be fairly sure they'll find another job... still, its no fun being out of work!
