TVR Garage is reigniting American enthusiasm for classic British sports cars from the late 1990s by reintroducing the TVR brand to the USA. Utilizing the 25-year EPA and NHTSA exemption process for imported vehicles, TVR Garage focuses on importing top-quality examples, whether classic or restored, offering a bespoke and personal service to its clientele.
Strategic Partnership and Expertise
TVR Garage has partnered with Str8six, a leading TVR specialist in the UK, to ensure access to nearly two decades of expertise in engine building, recommissioning, servicing, race preparation, and spare parts sourcing. This partnership guarantees that TVR Garage can provide top-notch support and services to its customers.
Comprehensive Service and Support
Based in Tucson, Arizona, with approved service locations in AZ, CA, and FL exclusively for TVR Garage vehicle owners, TVR Garage aims to offer end-to-end ownership support and peace of mind to its customers. The company launched officially at Carmel Valley during Monterey Car Week in 2023, showcasing two classic 1997 TVR Cerberas in Rosso Pearl and Amethyst.
Iconic TVR Cerbera
At the heart of the TVR Cerbera is the TVR-developed AJP8 motor, designed by Alwyn Melling. This V8 engine is available in two forms: a 4,185 cc (255 cu in) producing 360 bhp and a 4,475 cc (273 cu in) producing 420 bhp. The TVR Cerbera’s performance and design were recently highlighted on an episode of Jay Leno’s Garage, where Jay Leno himself took the car for a spin.
Future Models and Expansion
Looking ahead, TVR Garage has a pipeline of products spanning the next 10 years, including models such as the TVR Tuscan (Speed6), Tamora, T350, and Sagaris. This exciting future promises to delight TVR fans and clients alike.
Co-Founders’ Vision
Gavin Bristow, Co-founder of TVR Garage, expressed the passion behind the project: “The TVR brand is a passion project for all at TVR Garage, born from a simple personal import to a young business bringing the oldest ‘new’ brand to the US market.”
Andi Hughes, Co-founder, added: “Our aim is to provide our customers with an ownership experience as unique as the clients themselves. TVR offers an unrivalled motoring experience, providing a raw and visceral analogue connection that stirs all the senses. In a world of uninspiring EVs, we wish to offer the dedicated driving enthusiast a pure driving experience in their downtime.”
Partnership with Str8six
Jason Clegg, Managing Director of Str8six, shared his excitement about the partnership: “Str8six is excited to partner with TVR Garage, extending our reach over the pond to the US market. The partnership creates a framework to provide our shared clientele with a unique and supported TVR ownership experience.”
Digital Presence and Online Store
TVR Garage is also partnering with DuPont Registry and Classic.com to elevate its digital presence to new audiences. Additionally, TVR Garage offers an online store supplying service kits, parts, and merchandise to TVR owners in the USA and Canada.
