Nope, they're moving to bigger factory still in Blackpool. Sales did dip, but there were reasons for that, TVR only has one factory, they produce cars in the hundereds annually they are very low volume for a company that sells cars in multiple countries, averaging maybe 450 cars a year. The new owner Nikolai Smolenski wants to increase production to 5000 cars a year over a period of time, the new factory will allow them to increase production more but it's not a permanent move. They also have been buying new machinery so they can improve quality.
