Hey guys,

Well after asking loads of questions over the past couple of months I finally bit the bullet yesterday and made the 5 hour drive oop north to pick up my new Tamora! It's a 2005 (55 plate) model in Grigio Alloy (icy blue) which looks amazing in the sun - it's also got a JP exhaust, nitrons and SP12 wheels with R888's. I've spent all day today and yesterday driving it and I've got a ride & drive day booked tommorow with a handling session on track to get used to it - I can't wait! Thanks to Dan (previous owner) if he reads this, he was very patient and put a lot of effort into making it easy for me to buy/collect!

Cheers!

Dom

Looks very nice - beautiful body colour / wheel colour combination.

I recently sold my Tam. All I can say is that they are very under-rated cars. Enjoy.

Sorry its taken so long for me to reply - I had my ride drive course this morning and have been having such a good time with the car! Had it on track for an hour which was great, followed by some advanced road driving style stuff. It hasnt missed a beat yet, though I'm going through petrol pretty quick! Im pretty sure the rears are 255's, not sure on the fronts i'm afraid (can check tommorow) but I know theyre narrower. I'm taking her over to Le-Mans in a couple of weeks which should be great fun, just need to get some miles under her belt and make sure she's ready to go! Cheers! Dom
