So how many of us think we have the last one built of any model? Not last registered, last one built.

I think that I have the last Tamora built, but don't mind if I'm proven wrong.

My proof? No formal certificate or anything, but two emails from the factory stating it is the last one, and an email from the deealer stating that it was the only one built in 2006.

Yeah I know; pointless thread, but it's a rainy day....

Maybe you should sue them under the trade description act if this isn't the very last Tamora made smile

I suppose the only real way of telling is to get all the chassis numbers across the whole range and then see whereabouts you are in relation to any others of the same model.

Bit of a task really!

BTW: I've got the last cerbie (obviously).wink

That "brand new" Tamora must have been for sale for ages now and they've only dropped £4K from the price.

Based on the first post, are we saying this car must have been built in 2005 and is, therefore, at least 2.5 years old!?!?!

That's the idea; now there are TWO last Tamoras!

I've emailed them, to see what their audit trail is. Interesting if it is the last one built; that would mean that the Chief Engineers figure of only 1 in 2006 is incorrect.

Regarding the green Sagaris that was presented by TVR as the Sagaris 2, just a few details that might stop you all from 'guessing' ...
This is indeed the actual car as seen on the photo on pg 14.
It's order 25936 from MF Cars, the long time belgian TVR importer/dealer.
The car was put in build on 17/07/2006 under TVR order nr. 0154 and build n° 1102 and subsequently received chassis number SDLSA**A**B001102 (I can't really give you the complete VIN, can I ?)
The interior was finished recently by some ex-TVR people, in the Wesham barn
Delivery date (as quoted on TVR's Specification sheet) was NOV. 2006.
then 69 to 102 so you only need to check 30 odd cars (since we don't know whether all of the chassis numbers were built.)

I don't know about last, but I think I have the oldest Tamora out there.
Originally a demonstrator for TMS in Meltom Mowbray, mine was the 6th Tam to be built. I have been told that many of the early ones were broken up by the factory or crashed. Could anyone confirm this - perhaps with a chassis number?

There is a brand new Tamora on sale on eBay!!! 0 miles, condition new, registered Jan 2008! It must be one of the last built. I have put this on the how many Tam's thread also.

Hey thanks. I doubt I'll sell the Cerbie, well not for now anyway.

The Sag's are great. Blue one has historical interest, Reflex Charcoal is for more regular use ie: weekends, etc smile

That Tamora at HHC is probably the last Tamora. It sat in Cicelys for ages in 2006/2007 as the factory closed and I was told at the time by the sales guy that that indeed was the last Tamora out of Bristol Avenue. They also had the last Sagaris as well, not sure what the colour was called but it was a Metallic Blue one.
