I'm thinking of getting my Tamora retrimmed, but can't make a decision about the colour scheme.

My initial thoughts were to go with a light / Dark Grey combo, but it feels like it could turn out a bit flat especially as the exterior is effectively grey as well.

The current interior is a burgundy colour, and although it's not really my colour, the contrast between the Silver exterior and the Burgundy interior is quite good.

Has anyone got any pics of silver TVR's with interiors that are anything other than Grey or black?

Thanks in advance!
Allan

Mines red so probably not a lot of help to you! But IMHO really suits the car and is much better in the flesh than the pic below - ;



I don't have many external that clearly show the interior but hope these help;

Not really looked at a T350 interior properly before, but you would of thaught they would have done a better job on concealing that retaining screw on the centre consul..... especialy when you consider how awkward they've made other screws to get at.

Tony,

Thanks for the pic's this was just what i was looking for.

The grey and Red combo looks great by the way.

I don't suppose you know what colour carpet and leather that is do you?

The thing about most colours is that grey interiors look really smart, but the silver just needs some colour inside the cockpit to make it work IMHO.

I don't suppose you are going to Chatsworth are you? so I can have a proper look?!

Hi Allan,
The carpet is cunningly coloured grey on my service book.
The leather is also imaginatively called red, though to be fair having seen leather swatches at a local Morgan dealer the exact match they had was also just called red.
The greay flashes in the leather are Nimbus Grey.

Afraid I won't be at Chatsworth as my car is currently with Adrian at Central having some bodywork done after someone decided to use my rear end as a brake. If you're local to there then I'm sure he wouldn't mind you popping in for a look.

How did i guess you were going to say that about the colours involved !!

Hope the work goes well on your T350. I'm a little too far south at the moment to go to Central but thanks for the offer.

I'll keep an eye out when I'm at Chatsworth and see what other ideas I can get.

All the best
Allan

Have booked my silver Tamora in with DC Trim up in blackpool for a full interior retrim in December. I'm considering going for light grey and navy blue with cross stitching on the doors and seats. It's also booked in for a full body respray with surface & design. Thinking of spectraflair silver scratchchin

It's great having DC Trim and Surface & Design in the same building biggrin

Probably a bit "safe" for your liking, but Iced Titanium with black and white interior
