125,000 Mile Tamora
One of our customers, Chris Wrigley, has now
completed no less than 125,000 miles in the Tamora
he bought new in 2002. His car has been looked after
throughout its busy life by our own Paul Glynn, initially
at TMS Performance Vehicles and for the last three
years here at PPC. The story of this car will be the

and on the original engine (without rebuild) I presume.
hi, this was sent to me by john case from the tvr club ,its a pdf and can`t work how to post it .im not a tamora owner ,im from the dark side (chimaera)just thought you would be interested .he was advertising a open day at prestige perfomance melton and it came up .talking about clutches ,how many miles do they last cheers
I was talking to Paul Glynn at PPC (formerly TMS Performance in Melton Mowbray) and he did mention this car a few months ago and said a spring article may be appearing soon.
Makes me thankful that my Tamora (first Tamora demonstrator at TMS) has also been looked after by Paul since it was born

Great news! but Its not a case of Triggers Broom is it?
You old cynic!!! 
No doubt it's had a few quid spent on it but to cover that kind of mileage it will have spent a lot of time cruising about, which is what cars like (that and good maintenance, eh Paul?!)Cracking story!
Stole my thunder a bit here but I'm on a few hundred miles short of 100,000 in my 2004 T350.
Rebuilt engine at 60k
Clutches at 40k, 60k and 96k
A few front discs
Numerous engine mounts
Quite a few services
(and probably just as many trackdays).
100,000 miles seems like the perfect opportunity to work out the costs(gulp) etc, but how do I go about depreciation. Not that I have any intention of selling but how much for a well used and equally well maintained T350t red rose built approx mar 2004?

It would be interesting known how much that car has cost you on average per year.. Rebuilt engine at 60k

That'll be about £1 per mile then.......Gassing Station | Tamora, T350 & Sagaris | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
