Tanfield Group is the new company name of Comeleon. As I understand it, Comoleon was getting into trouble so TAN (paerent company?) took over. Since this has happened the share price has dropped by 0.25p each day for the last week or so (on average) and are now around the 3p mark with very little activity.
Does anyone know much about this company or previously held stock in Comeleon? There is virtually no info out there other than on the company website.
cheers
Mike

64p looks a tad high for this outfit, although many punters are often excited by this stock. Their electric vehicles are really "social buys" for companies in London it used to be the case they avoided congestion charges and parking agro...an excellent reason . . . .yet I read in The Londoner, that electric vehicles are having their parking-free "perk" removed quite soon......hardly a ruse to encourage EV's....just shows that you can never trust any Govenrment body.
In reality, IF electric vehicles are the way forward then Ford/Toyota (etc.) will soon offer them and TAN will find production in Newcastle(?) is hugely expensive.
The tie-up with London Taxis makes some sense, but I doubt it will result in much of practical use at an affordable price. The fact is that "people carriers" meet all the needs for taxis and can be serviced almost anywhere.
Sad to see the end of the Black cab ( and the Routemaster when Boris finds out the cost!).

You know I value your opinion :)
Like I said in my previous, previous post, it's not a stock I want to play with at the moment. It's made a double top, is this a triple bottom? Probably not.

The story appears compelling pt but the share price action suggests otherwise. In my expierience 9 out of 10 times there is no smoke without fire so these are off my radar for the forseeable future.

apology accepted .... feel free to be as caustic as you like, for i know that i too can be a bit sharp, but your BNP undertones that creep in are just plain distasteful .... enough said
i think (thought!) TAN had a really good product, and did well out of the share, sold at a profit and then rashly (greedily) bought back in at 108.
tough call now whether to crystalise the loss or to wait to see if someone will buy them out ... or even sp to recover

off point now.......but i aint bnp.....if someone makes certain hard viewpoints, people call them nazis etc......just look at al fayed at prince philip, lol.
i'm nationalistic thats all.
as for tan, either sell and buy a bit lower later on in year....or hold for medium long term......fat boy fat today was talking about h2 cars etc

hmm ..... interesting philosophical point as to the difference (if any) between nationalism and the same with political labels ...... history indicates that nationalistic movements get pretty radical and downright nasty all too often

TAN's PER must be around 14 now which is much more sensible for a automotive company with growth prospects.

ironic thing is cynic that since labour came to power, bnp etc have come back into force.....mrs.t made them extinct almost........similarly, the cold war was gone due in part to mrs.t......now its back under labour.
and snp r now in power in scotland and longer labour r in power in england, the more likely uk will be split up......only a conservative victory....and very soon rather than 2 year wait....will stop total break up.
having said that, i know cornwall people who want independence from england

Evil Knievil is shorting this.....his insight into the market is incredible, if he is shorting something the best thing is to get out....he is not always right but is a heck of a lot of times !
