If TVR 's need anything, it's docile, predictable handling, a good ride and USEABLE power. I want to use my Chim all the time, but it's embarrassing, scrabbling for traction when there's a bit of rain about. I've made a leap of faith and ordered a TAMORA - that's it's name, by the way - having driven a Tuscan, the drivetrain, suspension and handling are next generation over the V8 cars, and I assume we all want TVR to be successful, and they need to progress to be so. So why not give new models some encouragement and support, instead of whingeing, and giggling over your childish name juggling.

Here ,Here , i hope the Tamora is a success,and maybe with the design changes that James has seen it will look even better than the show car(the seats looked like they would give you piles on long journeys!)I would be interested to know what TVR your pxing for it?

Just checked out the TVR engineering website (www.tvr-eng.co.uk)where the contents page has a frontal picture of a mostly de-chromed Tamora. Looks wicked! The updated models section has some nice photos,but I'm still not sure about the sharp corner where the rear lights sit - otherwise the styling looks good. Check it out, and Merry Christmas to all!

Ok yep see what you mean now, I think perhaps I didn't see the updated page last time... and I agree it's looking better - but then the front was always pretty good seeing as how it's pretty well a Griffith. Rich...
