Knowing there are only apparently 350 to 400 ever built (depending on who you ask), how many can I expect to see at London Thunder on Sunday. Who's going?

I couldnt make the Tamora get together earlier in the year, can we beat that total?

Speak to maddog; he's trying to get as many as possible. Still doesn't look like I'll be there, but it would be awsome to have them all together in the cavalcade.

Well I think I saw about 8 or 10 Tamoras. All looking fine I might say. Mine was the laser blue N plate. Liked the tangerine (ish) one that I stopped next too at the lights in Whitehall.

Great day and fantastic site and the noise.....

Yeah, I saw about that number.

And when I was sitting in the TVR traffic jam near Piccadilly Circus, some kids shouted across that mine was the best TVR thumbup

Not me, but I was there to. Got as far as piccadilly before I gave up the chase, as it was 16:00 in the afternoon and with a dodgy clutch, decided to make my way home.

Great day though. I chatted to one guy in a blue Tamora in piccadilly whilst in a traffic jam. He was in a jam going the other wayblabla.

Lots of people loved the sound of the JP Sports Exhaust as I passed them, giving me waves and cheersthumbup. Made some bored people waiting at a bus stop's day by giving them a taste of what it is to own a TVRhehe and plenty of pics on their phone cameras byebye

A great day and one I'll never forget. I must admit a shed an emotional tear watching all those TVRs turning up at the ACEcry

I think I know which owner it was.... But for liability reasons no name and shame policy until they own up!

We stopped to help a damsel in distress (over heating Chim) and saw JulianC go past with plenty of steam coming out of the bonnet eek
Only had minor problems "lights on" warning came on when we went through a large puddle, had to stop and reset the dash.
Temp went up to 105 then 113 deg on one short sectionyikesthen came down again temp stayed in the mid 90s all day!!
And had a horrible burnt clutch smell giving it large down Oxford Street...yes Oxford Street we got a bit losthehe and had 2 Cerbs and a Griff plus the "TVR Parts" support vehicle behind me, the blind leading the blindlaugh but it looks like it ended up being a short cut because we made it to Whitehall in 45mins thumbup

My TAM performed impeccably for the whole 400 mile round trip Just as I thought it would. I didn't see too many Tams though, was a little dissapointed. Great day glad I returned to the UK to do it.
