Its arrived ! Its a Beast
Discussion
I posted a topic " arriving next week". Well its now arrived, a fantastic TVR TUSCAN 4.0L in Nightfire Red.
I had read a lot about how good the car was etc on this Forum, but nothing could prepare me for getting behind the wheel of my own Tuscan. Within 2 days I have become an addict ( and I dont want a cure! ).
I am still running it in and getting used to it, I havent really taken it over 4500rpm yet, but even at lower revs it goes like stink. God only knows (oh! and a few of you as well) what its like when the power kicks in further up the rev range.
This is a real car " a beast, a Monster"
Nobody mentioned the attention you get!. Other car drivers (in fact everyone) seems to look and point.
I have had a big smile on my face all weekend, even the England and France result hasn't got rid of my grin.
Cheers
Nick

Congratulations Nick.
Be sure to follow the running in instructsions provided by TVR. If it is brand new (as it sounds to be), I don't think it should be taken to 4500 rpm just yet! At the same time, it is reported that those S6 engines with the highest BHP outputs have been run running in the engine at a variety of rpms with the occasional burst quite a good thing.
Enjoy it, and let's see some piccies - its a tradition on here!
