Classic & Sports Car Club Awards 2021 - Star of the Future

12/11/2021

There were some terrific nominations for our Star of the Future category at the Classic & Sports Car Club Awards 2021 .

The category winner James Millington first joined his dad at events but is now an asset to the TVR Car Club and its youngest regional organiser, taking on this role aged just 19. Not only is he now the proud owner of two TVRs, he’s arranged events including the ambitious two-day ‘Peaks to the Beach’ which was a big success. The club can’t wait to see what he’ll do in the years to come.

TVRCC AGM 2014

23/3/2014

There were 3 finalists for this year’s award and in any other year, any one of the 3 would have run away with the title. Joining Howard in the trio were Nick Halstead and Chris Gilpin. Nick presented an absolutely stunning restoration and upgrade to a 1994 4.0 Chimaera adding a supercharger and with all work, including the respray, being carried out by Nick or his father. Chris took a near basket case 3000M that had been involved in a major frontal impact and with the help of a new chassis and many thousands of hours work, returned it back into the car that it was when it left the factory in 1978. But there can be only one winner, and in a very close contest, by just 2 votes, Howard took the trophy with the balance tipping ever so slightly in his favour because of the nature of the car that he restored, with it being PRW’s own car, and for his perseverance in getting the car released from TVR just 6 days before the company was sold to Nikolai Smolenski when all other prospective purchasers had been flatly turned down. A full report on all three cars will appear in Sprint.
