chimp or griff?

[chris watton]

In my opinion,you will not be disappointed with either, they are all great cars without a doubt. I wouldn't care if I had either a Griff or a Chim, (Ido have a Chim 450 at the mo)

I've had both, currently have a Griff. If I was starting again from nothing, I would be happy with either if it was the right car.

Drive loads, then decide

And what is it with boot sizes? The Griff boot is HUGE it will easily take a Tesco weekly shop even with the roof in there too.

I take it you don't eat much then

that is by far and away the worst position for an autochanger I've ever seen

10000 miles and counting good enough for you? I've had the valves re-shimmed when they got a bit noisy, but that was a service item for 12000 anyway. My Chimaera blew it's exhaust manifold gasket after 1800miles, petrol tank leaked, fuel guage packed in, mirrors fell off/worked loose etc. etc.

As for speed and handling, my standard car blew away every non-modified V8 at Bruntingthorpe, through the twisties, and on the straights, where even standard Tuscans made way for me. You can modify, Nitron, re-brake, re-tyre, to get close to Tamora performance, but then that's not a standard car, is it?

Just because you have a bone to pick with TVR, doesn't mean I have to agree with you, nor does it necessarily validate your arguments.

Kartman has 15K to spend. Talking about how much better a 36K Tamora is doesnt really help; great car that the Tamora undoubtedly is.

Kartman should try both Chimaeras and Griffs. Which is best depends on how you use the car and personal preference.

I commute in mine and find the Chimaera a better day to day car. If I wanted a weekend plaything Id have a Griff 500.

You pays your money.......
