TVR Car Club Ltd
- Unit 5, Nova House, Audley Avenue Enterprise Park, Newport, Shropshire, TF10 7DW
The TVR Car Club is the club for everyone interested in the TVR marque world-wide. Founded in London in 1962 by a small band of enthusiasts, the Club has grown to become one of the premier one-marque car clubs in the UK with a membership of over 7000 and affiliated clubs around the world. We are a Club run by and for our members, and aim to provide something for everyone interested in TVR, whether you own one of the earliest pre-Grantura models or the latest Sagaris or Typhon, or if you are simply enthusiastic about the marque.
We aim to promote all things TVR. As soon as you mention the phrase 'Car Club', it often conjures up the image of middle aged men in tweed caps, puffing on pipes with their head under the bonnet in pub car parks. Well we do some of that (perhaps not the tweed caps and pipes so much) with over 40 regional meetings spread across all four corners of the UK but we also do much more besides.
We have always argued that with the performance available in any TVR, it cannot be fully exploited on the public highway so we give our members the opportunity to drive on the race circuit at our various track days. We support TVRs in Motorsport and a large TVR Car Club gathering always makes the annual pilgrimage to Le Mans in France every June for the '24 Heures du Mans'.
We aim to cater for the family by arranging informal social gatherings in pleasant surroundings. We almost always spend a weekend in Blackpool with a series of small events culminating in guided tours of TVR Engineering Ltd on the Sunday morning and a 2-400 car convoy drive along the promenade back to the hotel.
We assist members with proving provenance of older cars. We currently offer a valuations service for insurance purposes (although this is presently under review). We proactively help the national motoring press with finding TVRs for magazine coverage.
We have a Club Office based in Shropshire that is open during normal working hours to offer advice on any aspect of TVR ownership. And of course, members receive the monthly magazine, TVR Sprint. For anyone thinking of buying a TVR, this is the magazine to read. Packed full of articles about all things to do with TVR, it also brings you access to over 100 used TVRs every month. These are likely to be the finest cars you will find as they will have been lovingly and enthusiastically maintained by our members.
Finally membership gives you access to the Members Only area of this website where you can find out much more about each model type, gain access to our Helpliners, members who have extensive TVR experience and who have volunteered to offer technical advice. There is a Discussion Forum where you can seek the views of current owners before you take the plunge and buy your first TVR.
