From the earliest specials built in the early 1950s by founder Trevor Wilkinson to the latest muscular supercars, TVRs have always stood out from the crowd. TVR: All the Cars provides a model-by-model appreciation of each generation of the Blackpool marque's products, all of which have been test-driven by the author, who is delighted to confirm that a modern Sagaris shares significant DNA with a straight-six Vixen of 1972, although the Sagaris is somewhat nippier. The chronological coverage of each car, usefully peppered with inside information, is complemented by a look at TVR's racing endeavours and an insight into the world of prototypes, pondering the 'might-have-beens'. For would-be TVR owners there is an in-depth look at the practicalities of buying and running a TVR to suit any budget, and an appendix provides historical and practical information about the engines used by TVR over the years. Essential reading for all TVR fans and sport car enthusiasts. In this smartly designed book, by an obsessive TVR enthusiast, each model is described and illustrated, with details of development, evolution and specifications--and along the way the sometimes subtle differences between variants are untangled.
For nearly sixty years, TVR produced some of the most thrilling, spine-tingling, hand-built sports cars to emerge from any British motor manufacturer. Yet it was the period between 1981 and 2004, under the management of Peter Wheeler, when the company finally shook off its shed-built roots and proved that it could produce cars that could match anything from Maranello or Stuttgart in terms of performance, but at a fraction of their price. Illustrated with over 300 photographs, TVR - Cars of the Peter Wheeler Era tells the story of the design, development and engineering of some of TVR's fastest, outrageous and most successful cars, from the retro-styled S1, to the racing Tuscan, 1000bhp Speed Twelve and the brutal Sagaris.
Gives a unique insight into design and project work for a number of companies in the motor industry. It is aimed at both automobile enthusiasts and to encourage upcoming generations to consider a career in the creative field. Written in historical order, it traces the changes in the car design process over nearly 50 years.
The full company history, from Trevor Wilkinson's initial optimism, the near disasterous move to a wedge shape, to the present day under Peter Wheeler. Covers the development of the cars and looks in detail at the factory, the staff, the design process, the creation of the chassis and bodies, and the care that goes into the manufacture of each car. Includes full technical specs for all TVR models.
This fascinating book tells the complete story of the early days of TVR, from Trevor Wilkinson establishing the company in 1946 through to the Martin Lilley years, which came to an end in 1982.

Illustrated with over 200 colour and black and white photographs the book covers all the early years, including the Sports Saloon, the Jomar, the Open Sports, TVR's first true production car the Grantura from 1958, Griffith models with their remarkable 289 cu in Ford V8 motors, the Vixen and Tuscan range of the late 1960s, the M Series models launched in 1972 and finally, the Tasmin range introduced in 1980.
