I drive a "future classic" so no problem there then !

According to the ever informative interweb, the term classic car was coined by the Classic Car Club of America (CCCA). They were founded in 1952 and applied the term to fine or distintive marques that were pre 1948. So Trevor just got us in there by founding TVR in 1947. (Sort of ) I'm sure there will be other post 1948 cars there.

So that means anything that is "fine or distinctive" more than 4 years old counts. At the Tuscan is older than that I should have no problem !!!

I'd say fine and distinctive is the important bit.

Better make it older than 4 months, though, for ntels benefit.

But the Tuscan 2 does not have the "cheese grater" or the brass/aluminium bits therefore will NEVER be a classic (IMHO )

Aye - and it's hopeless if you want a game of connect 4.

The depression that I won't be able to insure or buy is now setting in.

Some of us still can't!

Good day out. Cheers to Trev for the organisation.

I'll let you off for the detour we found some nice roads.

Trev and a detour?

Never!

He could have phrased that slightly different Rich, nevermind, I do have a reputation to live up to.
