Finally managed to have a few hours in the Tam in some nice weather after buying her a month or so ago and having to creep home in the snow! - scariest experience of my life (afer childbirth).

WOW, WOW, WOW, what an amazing assault on the senses...without doubt the best thing I have ever driven.

Cannot wait for the summer to come properly so I can get the roof down and get to know her better...never spent so much time checkign the forecast!

Thanks to all that helped along the way with my purchase, already made some friends and looking forward to meeting more in the not too distant.

Wondered if that would confuse, male but the birth of my son was so traumatic that it was easily the most scared I have ever been!

As stimshady rightly says that is a mean looking Tam. What wheels have you got on it Steve?
By the way have you noticed you seem to have lost your front number plate LOL, trust you have the damaged one in the boot incase of any questions from you know who.

Cheers LS, the wheels are Trafficstar RTS 3’s put on by the previous owner. I did want to change them for anthracite spyders but when I saw them in the ‘flesh’ they work well with the car imo. Not to everyones taste probably though.

The plates were photoshopped out for the purposes of online posting although she does look better without the front one on hmmm

Hadnt noticed the rear plate wasnt there, personally looks good without front one smash it up a bit as though it fell off and keep it in the boot in case of problems.
As you say wheels not to everyones taste but personally think they work well with your Tam.
hope we get plenty of good weather so you can enjoy the new baby.

Nice one Steve! She's a proper evil looking beauty... smokinevil
Love the colour of the hood, wicked contrast with the black. Does the trim inside match it too?

Cheers all, she does indeed sound fantastic with lots of pops and burbling (sp?) on over-run evil

Today would have been a great day out but no time (grr).

Carl, will be good to go out for a blast real soon, interested to feel the difference between the standard engine and the RR one too...

Must also book the ride&drive day - note to self.

Just noticed your car on the first page of the exterior colours thread, looks good there but your pics make it look much meaner
