Hi guys,

Had my factory visit on Wednesday and have put up some captured video clips for people to look at. Some of the filming isn't too great, but it'll still be good viewing for some people who're maybe too far to visit, or are just interested in the process anyway...

Also, managed to capture clips of some cars along the production run - so anyone who's expecting delivery of one of the following may want to see how their car is getting on!

Managed to get footage of:

Eclipse Blue Tuscan
Chameleon Green Cerbera
Another Blue Tuscan
Silver Tuscan S
Silver Tamora
Burgandy Tamora


Clips are at www.btinternet.com/~sixspeed/tvrvideo

Just took a look at the Burgandy Tamora and it confirms what I always expected - they look excellent in dark metallic colours !!!

Even I, who have given the Tamora such a slagging in the past, spotted the burgundy one and thought it looked great!!!!!

It did look good..

But it had strange looking rectangular reflectors either side of the high-level brake light. I don't think you can make them out on the clip, because of the quality of the encoding. Didn't notice them on any of the other Tamora's though...


Was amazing to see your actual car though! In fact, the whole thing was quite a site. The quality checks they make to the bodywork after its been given its coat of primer are incredible. I couldn't spot anything wrong with half the marks they'd circled on the bodywork when I saw it!!


I'd definately recommend anyone go up there and have a look if they get the chance though. It was well worth the 10 hours drive that day..!

The Burgundy looked good, but I thought the silver Tamora looked really smart... but then I drive a Yellow Griff so what do I know.
