Now the question is will this make any of you rush out and buy one (tamora)?

Trouble is, it's still as ugly as a bucket of poo.

They should stop making it and produce a T350 convertible, especially if it was as pretty as the Tuscan convertible. TVR has too many models, and the one that most deserves the chop is the Tamora.

In your opinion.

There are some Tamora fans out there.

(thats sounds like some kind of X-files comment!)

I don't think a bucket of poo is that ugly; might not smell as nice as a Tamora interior but certainly looks better than the car's exterior.

A T350 convertible with a Tuscan Racer rear end would, however, get my wallet unwelded after all these years....

Well mine has just arrived today! So frankly I dont care. I love the Tamora (and all tvr's mind) which is why I bought one! Drive one and then make a judegment! The rear looks fine and the good news is other people still like them too. TVR need an entry level car and this is it. You would not want it looking like a T350 as that would probably kill sales off the Tuscan.

The Tamora in the flesh, not in photos, is bloody nice.

Not as nice as the Tuscan but bloody nice nonetheless.

Personally I never liked the Tuscan much though.

Seems I like the TVRs that everyone else doesn't!
Or at least those that don't sell much anyway.

We shouldn;t really be saying that the Tam looks like a bucket of poo when there are people on here that own and love them...everyone is different

Isn't it interesting how people's opinions vary? We've just returned from a month touring Europe (France, Italy, Switzerland) in our Tam, and she turned heads everywhere - we had countless compliments of 'beautiful car', even from a Porker cabriolet driver in the middle of Cannes. Most of the Italian admirers thought she was a Ferrari. In the flesh and in the right colour the Tam is stunning IMHO.

Drive a Tuscan S

Thought the Tamora in piccies was ugly.

Saw a graphite grey one with anthracite wheels at Goodwood.

Thought it was WONDERFUL

Works really well in the flesh.

(Sticky sounds stage right)

I agree a Tamora looks stunning in the flesh but I think it looks nicer in a darker colour.. I saw a lovely one in Moonraker Black with Spiders for sale recently and it looked the business.. However I guess colour and looks are all down to personal preference...
