Ebbw Vale in South Wales has been chosen as the new home of TVR for when the British Sports car resumes production.
The site was chosen after the Welsh Government announced an investment into the £30million, five-year project, which was announced early last year and has already seen 350 orders flood in for TVR’s new Gordon Murray designed V8 sports car.
Welsh First Minister Carwyn Jones heralded the announcement by saying, “This is yet another fantastic high profile investment for Wales and a great boost for our automotive sector. TVR is another iconic and much loved, world-class brand that still commands a strong and loyal international following. I am delighted the next generation of TVRs will proudly bear the label Made in Wales.”
An equally excited TVR chairman Les Edgar added: “This is a fantastic opportunity both for TVR and the Welsh Government. South Wales is becoming a major hub for automotive and motorsport technology and development and the area is a serious opportunity for business development and job creation. We have a sports car project that has garnered global approval and excitement, and we are delighted that the Welsh government wish to become a part of an exciting new era for TVR.”
