If that is what the color does, mine will be red inside and red outside.
Does that double the price?

And even Continental tires with a red line.

Nice looking car. Does anyone know how to save pics of this -I can't work out how to. Should Tuscan badge on the back be on the right of the number plate?

That looks like my old car. its a beauty, although Im not sure Id pay that for it. Im sure however that the day I sold it the Tuscan badge was on the right. Ill check.
also, no mention of the T5 box in it, so someones in for a surprise.

One and the same, I remember now the badge being incorrect and taking it up with the bodyshop who repainted it for me. The one on the nose is also a bit too high.

I miss this car

Obiwonkeyblokey how did you fit the T5 box? I'm looking into fitting a T5 box myself and the car has an Essex bellhousing mated to the Daimler V8.

Oh almost forgot, nice car. Comforting to see the prices on the up considering I just bought mine smile

I loved it. my Overdrive box went bang enroute to le mans. It needed to have a modification to the bellhousing if I recall to work, but it was brilliant when fitted. short throw and transformed the car.

Do you remember if you had to modify the gear lever position either on the box or in the body? What car did you source the box from? Sierra Cosworth maybe? If you've got pictures I'd be really interested.

Hi Sonus,

no idea, however if you speak to Colin at TVRSSW he did the work when he was working at Dulford and if you were thinking of it I would give it to him to sort out. I believe there are plenty of T5s knocking about on ebay and the like. I had three in my garage at one point when I was racing Tuscans.

even a non runner having an offer of 15k last year and the seller deciding to keep instead.
Was that the white one that briefly appeared for sale on Car & Classic at about this time last year? Is this also the one in your post 'Tuscan V6 how to get a good Patina' from last week?

Than nobody in Belgium will ever buy the car whenI I need to sell it.
And I know the money is better overthere than in the north.

Looks like the owner is either on his second Tuscan or he has two of them. Either way, lucky man.
