Upcoming TVR Sportscar Reportedly Sold Out For 2017

And to think that not so long ago, we reported that TVR is accepting deposits on its upcoming supercar.

It seems that the British car manufacturer has pressed the fast-forward button whilst driving in the fast-lane, otherwise we can’t explain its rapid growth. Coming after a controversial past, with more downs than ups, the Brits announced their revival in June.

After stating that they’re working together with Cosworth and Gordon Murray on an upcoming V8-powered rear-wheel drive sports model, they sparked a load of interest from potential buyers who, apparently, made the £5,000 ($7,800) deposit to practically reserve the car from the limited first year of production.

According to Auto Express, John Chasey – the brand’s new director – describes the revival of the marque as amazing, stating:

“We began to take deposits in June purely because we had so much clear demand and potential customers. Here we are only a few weeks later announcing this remarkable order take”.

All 250 examples reserved for 2017 are sold out and even though everybody is still free to order, they won’t see their car completed sooner than 2018. It seems that TVR stayed true to their commitment to manufacture the vehicle in few numbers – at least in their first year of production.

We just hope they’ll follow through with the entire plan and come up with at least four new models.
