As a species its ok for Bonsai but I never had one.
As far as the above concerned I think is just too Big!
Just imagine the size of the pot

I have seen Tamarisk trees made into bonsai at Peter Chan's nursery in the UK. The trees were actually imported from Japan.

BTW, a good quality pot (tokoname quality, or commissioned pot) of that size would probably cost between 200-300 euro, maybe even more, if you add postage
Unfortunately, this (cost of pot) is one of the drawbacks when it comes to trees of this size

Actually is not far from Nicosia. Its just 15-20 minutes trip. If you interesting we can meet somewhere in Nicosia and you can follow me.
Re: Possible to make it bonsai?
Absolutely stunning work Mehmet. I've just got back from Spain where I saw many beautiful Tamarix that would make great bonsai. This tree will be worth the investment of a great pot.
