I may be biased but......

[lukesr]

I hear a lot of talk on here about how the T350 is the most beautiful looking car in the universe. I paid me weekly visit to TVR London this morning to make sure my self inflicted overheating problem from the weekend hadn't caused too much damage. I parked my Tamora next to a T350 then turned around to have an admiring glance at my car and realised that the T350 isn't the nicest looking car on the planet, that award clearly belongs to the Tamora with the roof off, 2nd place is the Tamora with the roof on and I think the 350 just about picks up the bronze medal.

Although I may too be biased I'm sorry to say that I think you have places 1 and 3 reversed

[MTY4000]

Too right.

I got my Tamora as everytime I went to the dealer (with my previous TVRs) my eyes were drawn to the Tamoras. Eventually I drove, loved it and I got one.

It's funny as I initially was not drawn to the press releases.... but in the flesh it just works for me.. (but I appreciate not to everyone - the sales figures back this up). As a bonus: it handles, the roof comes off, it makes nice noises - its just outright outrageous fun.

I'm sure this thread will turn into a thread of all us (non-biased) Tamora owners patting ourselves on the back for our own good taste... but, whats wrong with that anyway - it feels good.

Each to their own n all that but tamora's are horrible from the front the rest is nice but i just can't get past the front. Lines are nowhere near as nice as the 350's

No they are not.


Something along these lines could be called horrible, but no TVR will match that description.



I agree, each to their own but you have very high standards!

[lukesr]

Actually the front end of the Tamora is far superior to the 350, i did a scientific test to prove this. I would share the evidence with you but the dog ate it

[johnFairfield]

I must say that if I'd wanted a soft top it would have to have been a Tam, but I prefer hard tops and so it's the t350c (I think the targas spoil the lines).
My independant survey (n=1) conclusively proves that of the top two best looking cars in the world the t350 is no1 and the Tam no2.

I agree with your top two, but think you have got them the wrong way round, by mistake.

[smithyl23]

apologies for my comment before about the tam's they just aren't my cup of tea thats all.
There aren't many soft tops that i like the look of but hey i still love the timeless classic of the small renault turbos so what do i know.

[hollowlegs]

they are both really good looking cars, i have a t350 which i think is stunning, but there are some days when i prefer the 'softer' look of the tamora, not much in it really

[scottwade]

T350s are far better looking cars than the Tamora especially in bright arse yellow

Those with Tamora's I am only having a laugh so don't take it to personally each to their own and all that

Yep a lovely yellow tamora!

Nope-love the Tam but the most beautifull car in any universe is the T350

[gridgway]

Rad looks good. I must take some piccies of my Tam next to my Rad clubsport!

I'm surprised it is the front you dislike, as I think the Tam is the only modern TVR that still has the classic Brit sportscar look from the front, and it is usually the Tam arse that people criticise, which I have to admit it is a bit "unusual" looking.

But I still think Tam looks great

Kind of right

More inbetween the Tamora and the Radical

[hollowlegs]

i must say i prefer the rear of the tamora, the front looks 'squished' and just slightly behind the rest of the car in terms of design, yes it does look traditional and very nice but something a bit more streamline looking (t350) headlights would make it far more appealing. (like the yellow tam on classifieds)

The tam's front end is classically beautiful!


It just needs to lose a few pounds on it's the rear end.
