Okay, I've not had my Tucsan for long and I've just got a couple of things to say.

a) I love her!
b) I love her!

Sure, she's got a couple of quirks but nothing I can't live with (or the dealers won't be sorting out next week) and after driving her every day since I bought her, I'm a very happy man.

Welcome to the 'Dark Side'
Enjoy your car, stay safe and be prepared to join in the cheerful banter on here.
Good luck, and always remind yourself you are driving a car most people only dream of.

I've had mine since early August and I still can't get enough of it. You will have some quirks that even the dealer can't sort out but IMHO the more miles you do the better the car gets.

On the other note, don't wait for the spring to take the roof off. I drove mine down to South Wales (from Northampton) last week in glorious winter sunshine (two fleeces & some sunglasses) and the only comment (apart from "where did my hangover go") would be that I should have put two pairs of socks on as the heating is dreadful, even when it's going flat out !

Can't stop grinning..........

Martin - Since it's a Swordfish spec, why not go the whole hog and get John Travolta to drive it up to the house on Xmas Day
