Seeing as the "Tamora, T350, Sagaris" forum content is 90% Sagaris these days would it be possible to split it into two? One for the Tamora/T350 and the other for the Sagaris so those with the Tamora and T350 don't have to filter through all the Sagaris post?

It's a thought, but then again so many issues of interest are either common or closely related, IMO.

I suppose. Still, it would be nice for us none Sagaris owners to have our forum back

*sigh* and so it begins (again) I wonder how long before you turn this into a dodgy speed 6 forum

I wouldnt worry too too much, its only because the Saggy is new, the posts will soon die down to some form of equalibrium. Dont forget, there are not too many Saggys out there at the mo, and only a few excited owners who want to post about their new car, once the novelty wears off (justifiably so), I doubt there will be too many saggy posts.











get out and drive the beast man, and stop worrying about stupid little things like this!!

Sometime between March when I placed my order and June when it was delivered TVR made the change to use the same seat design for all current models. I'm not too bothered as I much prefer the seats I have than the original Tamora seats.

LOL, I do know what you mean, before I bought my Tam, I REALLY wanted a Tuscan, I think it looks breathtaking, but driving both back to back, I realised that the Tam would give me more real driving pleasure, so choosing between them was definitely the hardes 'nice' decision I have ever made! The Tam has never disappointed regarding road holding/handling, that stealth black Tam will be driving pleasure personified!

(I do still look at Tuscans, and by looks alone it makes me want one, but when I take a sharpish corner at 70, and it feels like 40, that dissipates!)

I've had both the Tuscan and now the Tamora and I can confirm that the Tamora is by far the best drivers car of the two. The Tuscan was a frightening experience but the Tamora is planted and begs to go faster... The Tuscan dared you to go faster and if you did you we're in for a terrifying journey....

I notice from your profile that you, like myself, had a 2002 TF! What did you think of it?, I bought mine brand new, 6 months later, I couldnt stand the complete lack of thrills, so bit the huge depreciation bullit (£6K!) and traded it in for a Chim 450, not looked back since!

The MG TF wasn't the most exciting but it wasn't the most boring either.

Yep, another 2002 TF owner here.
Very good at higher speeds. The suspension set up started to work properly. The styling was better than the F, the roadholding and balance much better. Low speed ride was ing appaling, it was trully Godawful. The intereior was lousy quality. The brakes were OK, with the 300mm AP's up front they were very good, but the ABS was rubbish, absolute rubbish. The gearchange was still criminally bad. Why criminally bad? 'Cos I had just come from a Mk1 Mx5 which had and still has the best gearchange of any motor car Ive driven, without even a shadow of doubt. That the TF had one so bad, compared to its direct rival always beggared belief to me.
Overall I liked the car though. It was fast enough, it had great luggage space and was very practical. Nothing like the thrills of a Griff or Chimp, but then it was never going to. A shame it was set up to ultimately understeer if you pushed it hard, but you could play the back out when you wanted.

LOL, that is spooky!!! I traded in my MGF Trophy 160 for the TF160, I knew almost straight away I made the wrong move! The Trophy drove almost like a budget version of my Tam, it was really great at grip/handling, but, after all the reviews at the time stating how great the TF was, I traded my Trophy 160,and it was a LOT worse, I guess if I'd have come from a vanilla MGF, it may have felt different; that was the last time I ever took notice of 'rave reviews', I notice now it has max 2 stars in any car mag, when I bought mine in '02, it had at least 4 stars!!
