Looks like somebody has taken an expensive and rather nice looking car and spent a lot of time and money making it look hideous.

That is simply criminal, like taking Angelina Jolie along for a course of botox and a breast augmentation to 40DD's

Looks like the result of a crate of Stella and 5 minutes on photoshop.

That is quite possibly the most criminal thing ever done to a TVR. Seeing kev'd up corsa's makes me laugh. that makes me cry.

Personally, the back spoiler and exhausts look naff and not in keeping with the cars image.

The front spoiler and side skirts look good. Imagine it with an S spoiler and we're cooking on gas

From the recent photos, I think the Tuscan looks quite good.

Got some info from the owner 'newlun'

• Back wheels 20 x 11, front 19 x 9

• It has a Cerbera style custom built interior

• Ferrari 355 carbon racing seats retrimmed (the whole interior has been retrimmed in black and a new style carbon leather)

• It has nitron dampers

• Clarion have installed 15k of ICE

• 7 TVs, about 16 speakers, dolby surround sound, dvd, sat nav

• It has a rear fold down number plate with a camera behind the same on front

• Nitrous being fitted with a programmable ecu, the air box intake is different to let more air in

• The body work has a Tuscan 2 style boot, two rear diffusers, front and back have been widened with side skirts fitted and two new front splitters being fitted at the moment

• The roof lines have been smoothed over, windows all tinted

• The colour is cascade blue but we used 20 plus coats of it instead of the 4 the factory used to give it a deeper more flowing colour

Newlun did NS's T350 if anyone has seen that. A little two radicle for my liking but impressive none the less.

It looks like a radio controlled car, as the wheels are too big for the body, and from the way the sides of the body are like cut off edges with no return.

I suppose it's a compliment to TVR design that all the modded ones seem to look wrong.

Sorry, it may be well done but I don't like it.
