message: Isn't the Speed 12 a Tuscan Speed 12 like the Tuscan Speed 6?

No, the "Speed 12" is a racing-only vehicle not to be confused with the "Cerbera Speed 12" which was originally intended for road-use but the project was cancelled by Peter Wheeler as being absurd.  The road-going engine without the restrictors demanded by racing regs made nearly 1000bhp - absolute madness in a car that weighed just over 1000kg.
i think it only had a 7.7litre v12 which produced 880bhp
Officially, the car had the 880bhp, but this was never fully confirmed, and rumours of up to 1000 bhp have circulated, as well as several testers claiming the power broke a 1000bhp dyno... i think we can safely say it had AT LEAST 880. Maybe more... --Aubs 400 (talk) 15:43, 29 January 2010 (UTC)

message: Something needs to be added about this. I'll fix it later - for those that don't know, TVR is not only moving production out of it's factory, but out of the UK altogether. Rumours (though I'm not including them in the article for the sake of clarity) suggest that Ricardo with be making engines and gearboxes and Bertone will make the bodies. I'd be very grateful if someone would update this for me! Abarthaddict 09:22, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've added an update.  I believe Bertone is making more than just the bodies, but also completing final assembly. Taalo 08:37, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Production moved out of country

message: Could this article be moved back to TVR, please? I only created that disambiguation page to limit the list at the top of this article. The other two options are not to articles titled TVR, and all of the internal links to TVR are related to the car company. Bob talk 13:26, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Has Smolenski really sold the company to Burdette and Santacreu? On 9th March 2007 he claimed still to be the owner. .

thread_title: Company ownership

message: I've noticed that the opening is now in past tense, and have thus amended the rest of the introduction to make it work grammatically. However, has the firm actually closed for good? A search of the internet seems somewhat confused as well. Does anybody know for certain and can cite what the current situation is? Bob talk 18:00, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: No, it hasn't.  There was just an article in the New York Times a couple of weeks ago about the new models they're planning to release.  This should be reverted to present tense and updated to reflect their current status. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 21:43, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

text: Three years later it still seems as dead as a doornail, although the website no longer has a date; the email address ("tvr@muadib.eu") looks incredibly fake and amateur though. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 14:41, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

message: We're told:
:Reports indicate that the current management of the company seek to transform the innate business model of the firm from complete car assembler and retailer to that of 'virtual car company' that leverages the abilities of external business partners, so as to decrease capital expenditure, overhead costs and variable costs, and so improve the per unit profitability and help counter the highly cyclical business fortunes highly correlated to general economic circumstances.
Does this mean that these unspecified (imagined?) reports show that the owners just want to stick their brand name on cars made by others? If not, what (if anything) does it mean? -- Hoary (talk) 15:03, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
