The TVR London Thunder was an exciting attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the biggest one-marque convoy ever recorded. Organised by devoted TVR owners, the event attracted a record-breaking 400+ TVRs, although the exact figure is currently being verified. The event wasn't, however, held just to celebrate the marque as it approaches its 60th anniversary, it was also to applaud and support the dedicated workers facing potential lay-offs as the company plans to close its British factory and outsource production abroad.

Convoys from around the country converged in London to form the parade through the capital city, and to make the world record attempt. On the parade route, a delegation delivered to Number 10 Downing Street a petition signed by some 2,500 TVR owners, enthusiasts and supporters; the petition called for the Government to investigate all options that are available to keep the manufacture of TVR cars in Blackpool, to provide help and guidance to TVR management during the consultation period and to assist laid off TVR staff as they seek new employment.
