Tamora - nothing quite like roof of driving especially where tunnels are involved
I'm not biased at all

iv got a T350t, never driven a tam, but think if its going to be a second car get the tam for the roof off experience, if your going to use it daily, get the T350, targa is good compromise aslong as the roof panels have the proper fittings.

drive both and see what takes your fancy

Only get a Tamora if you like roof off motoring. If not, get the T350

There are so many people who say it's too hot/cold/windy to have the roof off. Or they feel at risk in city centers. Or are more interested in listening to the stereo.

I own a Tamora, and the roof is off at every opportunity. Despite people calling me a poser or worse - that's what a bloody convertible is for. And I totally support the comment about tunnels and high walled buildings!

I love my (TOPLESS) Tamora!

Tamora is really the best of both worlds. With the roof on its like having a hard top (its 2/3rd solid) and yet with the roof down its a different beast.

The only downside is the boot, which can be awkward with the roof down, but a quick purchase of a roof bag from leven and minor modifcation to the boot with washers ensures that the boot is easer to use and pretty easy to get stuff into.

Either way, both cracking cars that you wont forget!

Forgot to say. Yellow ones are of course faster rofl

t350 is far, far, far better looking IMO. Ex Elise owner myself but don't miss it. Soft tops can leak, so can targa panels, which have also ripped off at speed (see elsewhere on here). In the summer in traffic you fry BUT around dusk on a hot summers evening open-top is a joy. At the end of the day, I guess you buy what is aethetically pleasing to you, don't you?

I love the T350 and was looking to get one at first. However I ended up getting the Tamora because it was a bit cheaper, but I don't regret it one bit. You can't beat that roof off experience, hearing the wonderful noise that much more. Also the ride of the car seems amazing with in my opinion not that compromised with the lack of roof! They are both amazing, enjoy!

Tamora, the best kept secret of TVR. With the roof up you would struggle to realise its a convertible, its solid panel is so good, and with the roof down, sports exhaust, enough said!
