Hi
delighted to be returning to TVR fold with a Tamora which is currently being given the once over by Jason and his team at Str8six
Small point-the owners handbook I have with the car is not the old leather bound style but simply a booklet with date of April 04 issue 2.
Is there a more up to date version?
Thanks
Grigio

Not sure what you mean by the old leather bound one, but when I bought my Tam, from new, in 2005, the handbook was just a 'book' tucked into a non-leather hard backed 'folder' (because I can't think of a better description). The folder has slots in it to slip in the service book etc. This could then by squeezed into a plastic TVR branded envelope to protect the folder.

Bad description, but hopefully you get the gist.

My old Chim had a handbook and service 'pages' in a binder, on reflection that may have been leather bound, which maybe what you are reffering to.

Thanks guys-then the rather cheap looking thing replaces the leather bound ring binders I knew from past TVRs.
The Sag/T350 `leather´ option in the shop looks good-shame there is not one with `Tamora´
Back to the contents of the handbook :
My Tamora handbook says April 2004/Version 2.
Even though I have been off the scene for a few years I see at first glance that this handbook does not correspond to the specs of the later cars.
Is there a more recent version?
Cheers

Hi Targarama
A low mileage Chameleon Green Tam from James Agger.
Currently at Str8six `being brought up to scratch`
I will be pleased to post piccies when she is finished.
Just driven her for a few minutes but of course immediately apparent that she is worlds apart from the predictable/fast/safe German machinery I have had since my last TVR in 2004.
Yet despite all the minor and sometimes major niggles TVRs are a damned hard habit to kick
Cheers
