Friday fun - What is the most feminineTVR?
Discussion
Depends what you mean about feminine?
IMHO
most lusted after because of beatiful curves? Tamora
most tempremental? Chimera
most prone to mood swings Tuscan?
mines nicknamed J Lo!
No TVR is girly in the same way that a porsche boxster S is!!
whoops! looking at your profile didnt you own one

I was doing a feature on the Tamora and had borrowed one from Dream Machines. I took it down to Beachy Head for some photographs and I was suddenly surrounded by a flock (a collective noun for girls might be some more Friday fun) of girls in their late teens/early 20s. They loved the car and one - I can remember this vividly - seemed to get off on rubbing the roll top in a manner that belied her age. She even asked if a drooling 55+ fatty would take her for a drive in it but I said I had a pension to look after.
So I reckon that women find the Tam very attractive, more so than the Tuscan shape. But you only have to drive the Tam to realise it is not girly in any sense of the word. I reckon it is faster than the Griff 500 point to point by some margin.
On the subject of girls and TVRs, I was at the inaugural Le Mans Endurance Series race at Le Mans in Nov 2003 where an all female team of drivers drove the T400R. One of them, the attractive and sexy Fanny Duchateu (the jokes about why she needs two big houses have all been done), was phenomenal. Really impressive. Ten minutes before her stint she was in the pit eating lasagne. She then disappeared out the back for a few seconds and then came back with seconds. She was so cool. She drove superbly and the conditions were dreadful. So girly does, perhaps, need clarifying.

I must be doing something wrong. The best I get is a thumbs up from some hairy petrolhead 
I've never viewed the Tamora in that light........and I would have thought that if it was that obvious most guys wouldn't want one.
I don't see the Tamora as 'feminine' or 'girly' at all..........
I've always thought the T350 to be the most beautifully designed TVR though.......
It's just lovely.
Always did say that PW designed the T350 in his dreams and the Sag during a nightmare!

Great piccy Mr byker!
