Anyone else suffer boot leaks on their Tamora in the left & right hand corners at the base ?

Just took mine out in the wet for the first time since the factory claimed to have fixed the problem, following its recent visit, but it still exists and actually appears to be worse.

I don't think its coming in through the light seals as some have seen.

Any ideas welcome so when it goes back to the dealer again I can at least offer some suggestions.

Think this car has put me off further TVR ownership for life - problem after problem after problem .....

Hi Frostie
yep mine does it as well, I thought it was the rear lights but obviously not.No cure yet to speak of although others have said new sealent on the rear lights did the job. Must be one of those TVr faults that "don't exist"
by the way I've had my own experience of problems with the car(see previous forums) but hang in there, in the dry she is fine. I ain't to keen on 350bhp in the wet any way, especailly when a porsche goes by!!!!

yeah same problem but my dealer fixed it by threading a small rubber tube through the existing (floppy) seal. Incidentally he did the same on the A-pillar seal and both now work perfectly. Zero cost....
