Hi All

I collected my Tuscan S today from Castle TVR. Wow what a car, i have not stopped smiling all day, despite the monsoon conditions. The de-cats exhaust are so loud and my girlfriend had to text me so we could hold a conversation. They are amazing to drive and at present i would say easier than my M3 i part exchanged. I can not wait until tomorrow for another drive, and feel a corner shop a few hours away is the destination for my paper run.

Cheers
Mark

Nice one Mark - you won't look back (except at the Boy Racers trying to catch you of course!)

Just wait till you get her out in the dry

Have fun

Hi

Will do, the car is very dirty already so will wait for a spot of sun to take some pics. Just started her from cold and boy the non cat exhausts are mighty loud. The neighbours have a new wave to say morning, which uses two fingers??????? How do you post pics etc so i know when i have some. Also does anyone have any tips for starting cold?

Cheers
Mark

cold start:
search the treads this has been discussed a billion times, but basically, dont go above 3k rpm and dont leave idleing until warm otherwise there isn't enough oil pressure to get it to the top of the engine.

my method is:
i start rev at ~1200rpm until water temp reaches 30/40 deg then drive off, using less thaan 3000rpm, when oil temp is above 60deg drive as i please

cheers custard
