TVR (a.k.a. "Totally Violent Racer") from the UK - making a comeback in 2017?

Holy sh*t, the most sinister and most dangerous performance car brand known all over the United Kingdom...........is planning on making a deadly comeback.

Man, their former cars like the Sagaris and Cerbera are so deadly that will strike fear and terror upon any driver

Always loved their cars. Build quality was shit but the design of a Sagaris is worth it. I also love the old Vixen models.

Always thought TVR styling was absolutely bonkers, in a good way. Excited to see them return

Hopefully they use an updated version of the Speed Six, it always sounded great.

Hehe no biggie.

After all, what's more important is the return of a car brand that has spread fear in the hands of motorists. Terror is TVR haha

don't get your hopes up, we can't even get some lotus' here anymore due to safety regulations.

if you compare tvr to lotus in terms of safety standards, lotus is like driving inside a giant safety pillow.

full disclosure: i've never driven or owned either so i really don't know but i've read a lot about lotus because i've always wanted one. makes me sad. :v:
