Anyone know this car?
Discussion
Aha! I saw your request for info a week ago, but at the time was keeping the details close to my chest! Once I'd decided it wasn't for me, I couldn't find your post! Hope this delay hasn't ruined your search!
Anyway, I looked at this Tamora! Originally saw it on ebay and therefore assumed it to be dodgy! I went down to Southend to see it, and chatted to one of the guys at the dealers (a family business). He said it was his father's car, and that he had had many TVR's (and was also a member of the TVRCC). His father was on hols at the time, and his son said that although he had only owned the car a couple of months, all cars owned by family members were fair game and parked on the forecourt at all times! Seemed like a reasonable business philosophy! Anyway, I chatted with the owner when he was back from hols, but had decided by then to get a T350 (BOUGHT ONE THIS WEEKEND!! WOOHOOOO!). The Tamora was very clean, bought from a BMW dealership in Milton Keynes a couple of months ago (the original owner had it as a company car, and traded it in for an M3). I was shown the original advert for the car, and other docs, so they hid nothing.
Funnily enough, before I went down to Southend, I actually spotted the car in an Essex CC meet photo on PH, but was unable to locate the owner (despite asking the tamora Register administrator).
The car looked very clean to me, and I was prepared to get someone to inspect it for me, as it was the best I had seen to date. The owner said he'd let it go for 21K, which is incredible value for a late, low mileage car.
Have you had a test drive yet?
Let me know how you get on!
By the way, did I mention my new T350?!! What a beauty!

Thank you! I've put some notes in another post (My new T350C). That's in the General TVR section at the mo, but will hopefully be moved to the T350 area soon! Gassing Station | General TVR Stuff & Gossip | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
