Just been studying this photo of a rather stunning lwb Tuscan. Has the rear wheel arch been modified or was this a factory design? I can't find any other Tuscan / Vixen with this design - it looks more 'M' series.

Never seen another like that, so pretty sure it has been modified later by an owner. Is it a genuine Tuscan V8, because it has quarterly ghats in the windows frames?

The description says it's chassis number MAL008. Everything about it sounds very genuine. To me the wheel arch doesn't look like a modification. It's very well done and doesn't fit with the usual reasons to modify wheel arches ie bigger / wider.
