Yes, I think so, will have a look tonight when I get home , they said that even if the MG supercar was priced at 40K, the Tam still would have won!!

Chaps,

Yes it was in Car mag, not that i normally buy it.

Don't you think the Tam is 100% better in the flesh, pictures in this article don't do it justice IMO.

Get down to Henley TVR - they've got it in reception. Had a peruse at the weekend whilst they were changing my ECU (attempt to fix EFI warning). Wouldn't normally buy CAR but filled 15 mins or so. Saggy wins hands down in the review.

Yep, Car magazine, March 2005 issue, it says stuff like '...but next to the sinewy swoops and curves of the Tamora (compared to the SV)..it looks crass and dated.....to help Halfords sell a a load of Max-Power style accessories',,,,,,' Forget the figures, what you need to know is the MG, despite making the right noises and packing a 911 Turbo-equelling power to weight ratio, is left staring into the Tamora's superbike cans every time the two cars' pedals drop', it goes on to say,,,,' Staying on the road means staying off the gas, a pity because this hime brewed 3.6 litre straight six is a gem, strong at the bottom end, titanic in the middle and cataclysmic between there and the blink of the shift lights' ,, loads of other good stuff in there too, it's even got the Tuscan2 review
