Press release from PKF (UK) Ltd

22/2/2007

 
Picture
The following press release has been received today from PKF (UK) Ltd, the Administrators of Blackpool Automotive:

​Blackpool Automotive Limited in Administration
PKF Partners and Joint Administrators of Blackpool Automotive Limited yesterday evening completed the sale of the main assets of the company for an undisclosed sum to a company controlled by Nikolai Smolensky. 

The sale included the TVR trademarks, certain vehicle stock, work-in-progress, and the manufacturing plant and equipment.

In a statement, joint administrators Philip Long, Kerry Bailey and Matthew Gibson said:
"Having advertised the assets of the company to the open market, we are confident we have achieved the best possible price in the circumstances and we are now looking to return money to the creditors as quickly as possible.
While we had a significant number of companies expressing an interest, four demonstrated they had the funds required to enter a bidding process. Ultimately, Mr Smolensky's company came in with the highest offer."

We are now pleased to announce that the owner of TVR Power, Dominic Trickett, has opened up the day to allow a limited numbers of cars to join them on the track. Sessions will be limited to just 6 cars on track at any time - 2 supercharged cars plus 4 "normal" cars - and will run from 9:00-5:00 with an hour for lunch. This will cost just £65+VAT per car.  

For more information call Dom on 024 7636 6177 or email him on dom@tvrpower.co.uk

Regional Split

15/2/2007

 
Picture
One of the Club's biggest regions - Devon & Cornwall - has been split.
Last October the decision was made for a trial period to seperate the two counties given the sheer size of the area. Geoff Chick (assisted by his good lady Hazel) made the move to come on board as a sub Regional Organiser to assist the newly elected RO Corin Denton with a view to developing Cornwall. The response to the new format has exceeded all expectations.
