I don't believe it!..

TopGear, Tiff with the Porker Boxster S, Beemer Z3 M, and TVR Tamora test, and Tiff didnt give his usual yawntastic praise for the BMW!!, the Tiv came top - good stuff!

Oh no!!! I missed it!!!!!!!! Isn't Top Gear repeated on BBC Choice at the weekend? Anyone know the time?

I did wonder if that was Ben

[nubbin]

There's a complimentary article in Top Gear mag as well - the Tamora comes out as the best "sports" car, and better handling than the Boxster. The final verdict is based on which car would be best to use every day - presumably to crawl around in London. But 0-60 in 4.6, and 0-100 in 9.5 will do for me!!

Not only did Ben get soaked but Tiff quite demonstrably preferred the handling of the TVR, watching & listening to him drifting it round the corners on the throttle was a delight. Makes me wonder why they slated it in the Autocar article? Which as a result, I see, has caused a few people to reconsider if they have made the right decision to buy one. Well (if you like the looks) then given last nights disply I'd say definatly yes! Rich...

I agree Rich, and I admit I was having second thoughts, but for other, personal reasons as well as magazine articles. I've spoken to TVR, and since my deposit is non-refundable, I'm hanging in there, transferring to HHC, (from Hillfoot) and I will probably spec my car up next year. After last night's review, I'm itching to get my Tamora, but circumstances dictate that I need to wait....

[douglasr]

Am I alone in thinking that the Tamora is the least attractive TVR by a big margin ?

No you're not alone, it's pants.

Uglier than the Tuscan IMHO
