    As a kid growing up locally to TVR you have to put things in to context. The Bispham tip was opposite the factory. Rumors abounded that some of the test drivers were local traffic police (!?). I would ride my bike past stacks of OZ wheels while not realizing the atmosphere was very heavy with the glues and solvents being used to bond the cars into those beautiful shapes. To paraphrase Johnny Smith… it was the 90s.

    The Aston 6.0 V12? Imagine if they went the supercharge route.
    You could still hear the V12 note properly ... power could've been down ... but the exhaust note could've been a seller with that titanium setup.
    What's better than a terrifying car with muddled whooshes? Slightly less terrifying alternative with loud screams and supercharger whine.
    (The above is taking into consideration if TR fails to reverse-engineer the 7.7 V12 and sticks with the AM 6.0)

      @ build quality looks awful not sure about this over a Veyron. It’s a lot of money for essentially a kit car with a modified engine. You can make 1000hp manuals for significantly cheaper. Small turbos on a viper make 1000 easily. And you have a lot of money left over to spend on very high end parts around the car, even put full carbon fibre body panels on it if you wish and you’d still have change to spare. You’re paying a lot extra purely for the ‘fake’ TVR body shape.

    Really impressed with what they have accomplished, they have made a car that is just as stunning as the original and just as mental with the performance.
    Like that they went with a TT V12 rather than just go the easy route of throwing a LS V8 or something in there also.
    If they get that TVR V12 reproduced as well that would be the icing on the cake.
    Speed 12 was a almost mythical car so to see someone making new versions of it is epic.

    This was fun. Felt like an episode of old TopGear.
    Thanks!

    None of those V12 wail we used to hear from modern V12s, it's a proper barrel-chested 50cal old-school V12 bark. Befitting the TVR character.

    LOL. Thirty+ years ago, my mate used to take me to pub in his Montego Turbo at over 130 MPH! I don't recollect either of us screaming!

    Very cool car, and I'm honestly just happy to see this beautiful shape living on even just a bit more. With the Aston Turbo engine it's hugely impressive I'm sure, but the 7.7 was what the Speed 12 was all about, the rest of the car was almost irrelevant, just there to give that engine a place to work. I saw the original racing prototype Speed 12, the white one, at a test day before they were really public knowledge. It was on an air restrictor plate so it had about 550hp for most of the driving it did, but later on they took the restrictor out, reflashed the ECU, and it was like they just turned on VTEC. It was a noise unlike anything I've ever heard, like a Zonda F on full song with some Days of Thunder depth to it as well. To this day I can still hear it and remember that feeling, I was only about 12 at the time and the only thing that came close was the Lamborghini L802 found in certain offshore powerboats. If these guys do bring the 7.7 V12 back to life, we Brits will finally have a reason to wave our nation's flag

    Nothing like an old school tubro engine. The sound of them is just so much more visceral than anything today

    Definitely true to the TVR roots in the fact that it cant drive in a straight line without falling to pieces

    10/10 for being the only channel sponsored by Manscaped that I've ever seen wear the boxers. Now if only I could figure out how to get myself into one of those Speed 12s (without killing myself or the car). I'd like to work at or have a company like helical one day XD

    Before our Lotus Elise we had a Cerbera - 4.0 St6 - it was truly terrifying and terrifyingly tremendous at the same time - goodness knows what this would be like - passengers waving around chainsaws whilst driving or something>?

    Love TVR's can't wait to see more imported across the pond. It's also hilarious the hood/bonnet pops open a bit, English car brand employees, it's ok, keep doing 140+ you're safe 😂. I love my p38a so I say that with admiration

    This car is badass as hell. Kick ass color too. I have a modified Vanquish Volante with some head work done, intake, Velocity AP headers and Quicksilver Titan exhaust, and custom tune. Makes just about 700hp to the wheels. This TT setup is looking great now

    I went up against Peter Wheeler at Bruntingthorpe in the OG Speed 12 (the white one) when I was testing a then new Nissan Sunny GTiR. He definitely came past me on the straight at 200mph +

    I have loved TVR's since I worked at Brooklands TVR in Exeter in the late 90's, when I was fresh out of College. Great memories of driving some absolutely crrrrrrrazy Cars at quite a young age.
    Now, a little older, I'm in the market for a TVR Griffith 😋
