When dormant, the TARDIS' interior dimensions were only enough to contain the console. When Ace activated it by placing the [[TARDIS key]] in a slot in the console, it connected with her mind and recreated the interior dimensions. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Blood Heat]]'')

With [[The Doctor's TARDIS|his own TARDIS]] having been lost in a [[tar pit]], the Doctor began to travel in this ship. Despite some problems involving the ship initially not trusting him, the Doctor eventually managed to get along with the ship until he gave it to the mysterious [[Muldwych]], simultaneously reclaiming his original TARDIS from Muldwych after it escaped destruction in the alternate world via a [[Fortean Flicker]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Happy Endings]]'')

After the Doctor managed to repair it, this TARDIS had a working [[chameleon circuit]]. It could blend in with its environment. It became an [[Aztec]] idol in [[Mexico]] in [[1487]]. When it arrived on the ''[[Titanic]]'', it became a large, featureless crate. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Left-Handed Hummingbird]]'') Ace plotted an exterior of the TARDIS using the keyboard inside the console: a [[25th century]] Axmeister tank. On discovering this, the Doctor reset it to the TARDIS' control, upon which it disguised itself as a gingerbread cottage. The Doctor initially treated this as a mistake, but later revealed that it had been his first clue that their latest destination was the [[Land of Fiction]], which he had concealed from his companions until he was ready to spring a trap on the Land's new Master. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Conundrum (novel)|Conundrum]]'') In [[London]], the Doctor materialised the TARDIS around [[Nelson's Column]], then disguised it as the Column. Mortimus ruined the disguise, hacking the circuit from his TARDIS and replacing parts of the column with the Statue of Liberty. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[No Future]]'')

Finally it appeared as a [[tarot]] reader's tent. The Doctor decided to permanently "fix" it to appear as a police box from [[1963]], concluding that, while it was old-fashioned and out of date, he felt that the police box was him. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[No Future]]'')

The interior was taken from [[Ace]]'s [[mind]] when she first activated the TARDIS. There were [[Laboratory|laboratories]], living quarters, a [[swimming pool]], cloisters and [[library|libraries]] within the TARDIS' interior dimensions. She also created a new room for herself. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Blood Heat]]'')

The console room contained a [[Edwardian era|Edwardian]] chaise longue and, within one of the roundels, a thermos of [[coffee]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Blood Heat]]'') There was also a basket chair and a [[hatstand]] in the console room. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Dimension Riders]]'')

Eventually it reverted back to the classic white style the Doctor used to have ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Head Games (novel)|Head Games]]'').

The console had an [[emergency dematerialisation switch]]. This TARDIS was initially able to alert [[Ace]] and direct her attention to certain matters. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Blood Heat]]'')

The TARDIS had a working [[chameleon circuit]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Left-Handed Hummingbird]]'') until the [[Seventh Doctor]] permanently disabled it. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[No Future]]'')

The TARDIS' state of [[temporal grace]] also functioned correctly, able to halt the [[missile]]s fired by the [[HMS Revenge|HMS ''Revenge'']] at the Silurian's palace. The Doctor materialised the TARDIS around the planet to prevent the missiles to ensure the effect worked. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Blood Heat]]'')

Initially the TARDIS did not trust the [[Seventh Doctor]]. It gave warnings, including sounding the [[Cloister Bell]] telepathically to the only one it did trust: [[Ace]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Dimension Riders]]'') The TARDIS often became "sulky" when the Doctor was piloting it. While there was no [[day]] or [[night]] inside the TARDIS, it did dim the [[light]]s when it felt it should be night. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Left-Handed Hummingbird]]'')
