Absolutely gorgeous, nubbin!
By far the best colour I've seen so far (on pictures...)

I am seriously considering moving back to the UK so that I can have a Tamora! Nubbin, yours is stunning, I also like Flasher's ex TMS car in yellow. If I do come back then I think the yellow does it for me.

Yep, have to agree, the shape is definately growing on me and if the drive is a good as everyone says... ummmm... I wonder!

I was supposed to be selling my flat and buying a house this year. Wonder how the other half will react if I delay it a year or two! She get's scared s%&tless in my Griff so hates going out in that!

I'm going to have to stop reading these message boards!

So Nubbin, is the black stuff on the bonnet scoops paint or sticky-plastic? Rich...
p.s. looks rather good, congrats on your new car!

I'm not sure, but I think it's probably paint. If so, the masking causes a raised edge which makes it feelk like vinyl. Anyway, who cares, it's bloody wonderful!

Andy,

you was faster than I with your reply.

I understand what you are feeling at the moment, it's like being a little boy again - the bigger the boys the bigger the toys :wink:

Waiting for the pics...

Another gorgeous sunny day, but a bit frosty. I'm at work (again!!), but at 11 o'clock, I'm outta here and then some more miles are going on that clock, more piccies etc.

I'm sure now that the gods smile on TVR's - when I got my Chimaera, there was a run of hot sunny days, full roof down action that went on for weeks. That was in July, mind you, and this weather in February is just a huge bonus on top of getting my car.

Flasher, all the best for today. Get that roof down!!

Aha!
It seems to me our mate Christof might put his hands on a Tamora while waiting for his Tuscan R

Nubbin/Flasher, you're luckier than I was! It rained non stop for the first 2 weeks after I got mine!
I'll be taking mine to the West Mids TVRCC meet tomorrow. Roof down hopefully?
Have a good weekend. Cheers...... Andrew

Where's the meeting tomorrow, Andrew? I might venture down there, if I can persuade my girlfriend that it won't be a load of petrolheads talking TVR (well, a little white lie doesn't hurt, does it?!)

Nubbin, it's at the Bull's Head in Meriden which is just off the M42/A45 near the NEC.
I'll be going with my girlfriend and will get some lunch in the pub. (Most of the others stand around in the car park!).
Maybe see you tomorrow?
Cheers...... Andrew
PS. I'll email you my mobile number.
