The Sagaris was initially put with the T350 and Tamora because they shared enough components to make this a happy place. Is that not the case?

Would Sagaris owners prefer their own forum now?

Aye Ted, why not. I'm hoping for TVR's sake that there are enough of us now to justify our own thread. And besides, don't all TVR's share a lot of components?

It's still a happy place though whatever you do!

(Even though i do have a bit of a joking whinge every now and then), personally I think the Saggy should stay in the T350/Tam section. There isn't enough 'new' material posted to go splitting up the cars (YET!), especially as they share so many common parts e.g the whole interior!

Plus the Saggy novelty will soon wear off, making postings calm down to the point where the same amount of material will be posted equally for all 3 cars.

Just my 2p worth.

I think they should stay together.. nothing like reading some good banter in your spare time. If it was not for this forum and the Tamora I would not have the Sagaris today... they should 100% stay on the same forum.

Well.....not often I say anything controversial and please note the lack of smileys in this post..... but......I think there should be a seperate forum.

All the other models have their own, including the Typhon and apart from one car, it's not even produced yet!.

The Sagaris is a new TVR. The new model on the block.

There will be lots of new owners and hopefully the number of Sagaris owners will grow on P/H as the cars are sold.

I, for one, always promote P/H in my RO welcoming letter and point any new TVR owner to the forums.

The Sagaris is a great TVR.

I'm sure there are some of you out there who don't like it and who would love it to be a pile of shite....well it isn't....fact.

I love my Sagaris and want to talk about it if I have good moments with it.....

After a thread like kmpowells ..(and I'm sorry but that wasn't a 'jokey whinge' ...if you want a T350 picture thread...just post one up...no need for the sarcastic remarks....)..I feel reluctant to do that now.

I have made every effort since moving from the Cerb forum to be as friendly as possible, especially when new people have been waiting for new TVRs on order.....and that includes T350s and Tamoras.

If the general concensus is that the Sagaris should remain on a forum with two other models....please will people stop whining every time someone posts up how good the Sagaris is...they are going to because it's their new car and it IS a great TVR.

If you don't like it....fair enough...it's a radical design and not to everyone's taste (especially for the extra £10,000 as we are constantly hearing ) (okay...so one smiley)..

you don't have to buy it...it's all a matter of choice.


...and if you think your T350 is a better car......GOOD.........you paid a lot less than we did...feel happy.

We are all TVR fans......

I want to be able to post up about my car without feeling guilty that I like it so much and I don't feel like I can do that at the moment.

There.....I feel much happier now I've said that.

Not often I agree with Arb (he suggested a seperate Sagaris forum)about anything.....

I'm off to take a valium and chill.......

For me, I'd like to see them kept together.
The cars have as much in common as the T350 and Tamora do and it's great to hear how much people are enjoying them. I'd imagine there will be a fair amount of people upgrading from the other cars too...

edited to add: and I think that's the first YP post I've ever read and completely disagreed with.

What Mr DeeJay said, like, all of it!


Yep, it would be a shame, just because we sometimes throw all of our toys out of the pram defending our perticular model, that doesn't mean we have to split up forever
We all enjoy the same thing!

Well I think it would be quite nide to have them together. I for one do enjoy reading about the Sagaris and would see it as something to possibly move onto in 18 - 24 months time.

Together IMO, if we can make effort to get along!

New Sag owners bound to post enthusiastically. The differences can be fascinating, and the similarities to Tam & T350 are many.

Sorry to let you down DeeJay

Look...I have no problems with Sagaris staying on this forum............

That's the comment I made earlier and stand by it.

There will hopefully be a lot more Sagaris owners to come and now is the best time to sort this if it's going to be done at all.

Look guys...We sold the Cerb to buy the Sagaris and I left the Cerbera forum just as it was getting a bit tetchy between some folks and all very technical.
It was uncomfortable.
Happily, it has sorted itself out and is back to being a great forum again.....
I wouldn't like this one to get the same way.....that's all.

I'm one of those who likes folks to get along......and will always try to balance any argument.
But on this occasion I was racked off by the remarks kmpowell made this morning. It was unecessary.....and doesn't exactly make for a harmonious forum.

If everyone wants to stay together, I have no problem with that , as long as we can all treat each other with some respect.....even DJC...although that may be a long shot

I hope no one took offence from my remarks, but an opinion was called for and I gave mine.

If you split the Sag from this forum, why stop there, you may as well split the Tam and T350 into separate forums?

I wasn't around at the time, but I'm sure this forum must have been pretty similar when the T350 first arrived on the block - just give it some time, things will settle down!

Im not that fussed either way.

I just dont read the Tam/350 threads really as I dont have either car, so cant really add anything. My opinions on the models are well known as it is, the only time I voice them is on Sagaris threads when someone tries to tell me why I wasted my money.

I see niggles on my Tamora that I've seen people with 350's and Sagaris' posting about - so it's quite useful that they're all in together I think.

You might not spot useful posts if you split this forum into 2 (or 3) separate forums.
