A shedload of great looking Tivs at the Tickled Trout on Saturday afternoon, and a similar shedload at the factory on Sunday morning.

Anyone here? Ours was the yellow Tamora......

We were there...Z3 MRoadster and Skyline. We managed to visit the Tuscan in 'out patients' at the Factory.


To Jane and all the other organisers...thought you did a great job and we certainly enjoyed it. Just one thought though....can you please make sure you book the same weather for Le Mans.

Yup, me, Suffolkfoxy (her idea on the day when talking to Mrs Flipflopgriff) and the juniors were there in the Chrimson Starmist Cerb. Said hello to a few, super bunch as always, good time had by all. Son & his girlfriend joined us for the car meet on the Saturday, now she has her own ideas as to future motoring!!!

Thanks to all who organised, and to those at HL Gorner who let the kids ogle and pose with the Loony Toons Tuscan. Much cred today at school with the photos.

Did you see a yellow Tamora being made (order 1129) should have been somewhere in the main assembly building?

Yes. Wires hanging everywhere, masking tape stuck on it, right mess it looked. Didn't even have an engine in it!

(just like the rest of them, except for about 4 at the end)

I pulled in to the Tickled Trout car park at about 12.30 after a drive through the lake district.

I was in a Silver Tamora and was with a blue T350 and green chim.

Apologies as I couldn't stay very long (had to rush off to watch EFC lose).

Would have loved to have gone rounf the factory too. Maybe next time...

I made it to the factory in the Olympic blue Griff. First time round and well worth it.

Best bit for me was the copper cascade Tuscan, I gotta get me one of those.

I also saw the Tamora on the line, went over to it with a large grin as it looked the same colour as mine (Halcyon Midas Pearl) - you'll find a lot of admiring looks from onlookers and a lot of photos taken when she's finished! What colour roof have you chosen?

There were also a couple of T350s in the same colour, too - also looked great. A lot of T350Ts in production, but also nice to see a few Tamoras.

Suffolkfox, I was standing near your Cerbie when you arrived - she looked and sounded great.

She was certainly the dog's danglies, wasn't she? Superb paint job again by the factory.

I went for a black roof, black interior with yellow , door panels are black and yellow, and the backs of the seats painted the body colour. Yellow piping on carpets. I reckon it will attract a lot of attention too, but the colour was awesome when I saw it!
