Re: Nouvelle TVR MY2017

Voiture présentée en comité restreint à ceux ayant commandé l'engin.
The car, a 200mph, front-engined V8 two-seater very much in character with the traditional Blackpool TVRs but entirely new from the ground up, is being unveiled in series of secret launches at designer Gordon Murray’s HQ near Guildford, south east of London. Only those who have already placed a deposit are invited.
The company is swearing its customers to secrecy — to the extent of asking them to sign confidentiality agreements — because it has elected not to show the car’s finished look in public until an official launch in September.
First customers are seeing the car in groups of about 30, at intimate meetings with designers and company principals, held on Saturdays and Sundays over two weekends. Proceedings start with a briefing on the car’s all-new mechanical specification — touching on aerodynamics, lightweight construction and crash safety — before the fully detailed model is dramatically revealed.
Prospective buyers are also hearing about a series of performance targets for the car: power from the Cosworth-developed V8 easily exceeding 400bhp, a kerb weight around 1200 kilograms and a price below £90,000 for the full-house TVR launch edition. Plus, of course, the 200mph top speed and the sub-4.0 0-60mph sprint.
Tous les détails.
