Did Top Gear ever do a road test or reveiw of the TVR Tuscan ?

I first saw the Tuscan at the Motor Show (many years ago) Dreamed of owning one. Some years later (june 04) I got one...Horray !

In all of that time I can't recall seeing a Top Gear reveiw of the Tuscan. Did they ?

Anyone ?

Yep they sure did ..... its about 4 minutes long and you can download it from Kazza

Yeah. Tiff did a feature on it when it first came out - which I happen to have as a video clip. It's ace, especially for me as it's the swordfish car. However, it's about 27MB so not sure if it's too big to email.

There's the original Tiff Needel Tuscan video and a Top Gear VBH Tuscan S video under the miscelleneous section of Luca Brazzi's excellent site:

They also used a Tuscan S to test the theory about speed cameras, how fast you would have to go to miss the second flash of the gatso, was 170 mph ish i think.
