Very interesting!
Traded it in at Peter Smith in Hatton, Derby
I do miss the Golden Tuscan
But it was an absolute beast!
Thought I would kill myself, a lot of power
So I went for the more sensible T350, hmmmm,much safer?
That's what I told my girlfriend!
Apparently its gone to a good home, hope they enjoy.
Went for a rip last evening in my mates lotus S2, as passenger, felt very quick and did panic as he threw it around roundabouts and corners.
Then took my silver bullit down the same stretch with him as the passenger, he was unable to speak for approx 10 mins afterwards!!
I love my car!

Great cars, however slight little niggle is rear glass hatch rattles when going slow on bumpy roads. Not looked into curing yet. Hows yours?

No rattles yet but these things can apear at any time as I'm sure you know.
Only complaint is multiple little stone chips round the number plate, other than that brilliant!
I am thinking of getting sports exhaust, but may ruin the car? Sounds good enough?
What do you think of the anthracite alloys?
By the way the chap you bought your car off, is a very nice chap, when I told him I've always wanted a cerbie but was worried about reliability, he tried to convince me to buy both T350 and a cerb!! Crazy! But I like it.

Yeh Roger, top bloke. House wasnt too shabby either. I think he wants another griff and Cerb just to get him through to when his Typhon arrives. Cant be bad.

I test drove one with a sports exhaust and IMO was too loud in the car. Anthracite alloys look good against a lighter colour car (not so on a darker colour) so should look good on yours
