New TVR owner and pics

[john purdie]

I have asked questions etc and have been replying to topics however have not really had my limelight yet of saying I'm a new owner so guess what!!!!!!!

I'M A NEW OWNER and here she is: tell me what you think!

Welcome to the gang

Nice car , great colour.

The colour is the same as the first tuscan I saw at the NEC when launched - made me want one.

Enjoy

[Stevie Mojo]

Very nice

[WISHY]

Great looking car - a brilliant colour

only one minor suggestion to finish the front look off as you have a personal plate

Cut down the plate to fit the exact size of the number plate holder this stops it overhanging and cutting off some of the air holes

try fancyplates.com and type in the size of plate you want

[john purdie]

cheers Wishy,

I have just picked it up and so have not had chance to do anything, I always use Fancy plates myself however did not think of downsizing in plate so have now added to list of things to do!!!!

Regards
John

[WISHY]

finishing touches count!

[Whitey]

nice! Was that car bought new from the TVR Centre? If so, I was there the day the owner picked it up and it still looks the same!

Hi Whitey,

Yes I believe so i am the third owner and have pics of the car being built and as you say (apart from the little niggles) it does look the same.

The colour is outragious and very rare not much paint left apparently! I think its a marmite colour

cheers
John

Very nice car john, welcome to the mad house if you have a problem this is the site to come to,,,,,,,
all your car needs now is clear indercator lenses, its the small things that count................

[Forthright MC]

now that is one seriously tasty Tuscan!
that colour must be Cascade Copper or Reflex Spice perhaps (looks a little dark for Cascade, could just be the light tho') an awesome colour either way!
enjoy!

[john purdie]

Hi TOV,

I agree Clear Lenses on order from PPC in melton. it will look better, however quite scared how i found out how they remove the original ones they smash them out!!!!

[john purdie]

Hey Forthright,

the colour apparently is Desert Moondust pearlescent! and as explained there is only something like 2 litres of the paint left like ever!!!!!! no ingredients or something.

Hey John, the reason I remember that car apart from the colour was the first owner was proudly driving out the car park at the dealers and he got a low volts warning on the dash! It was a common early fault, all resovled now, I had the same thing cannot remember what the fix was! I was there either just before or just after I collected my car, and 10 minutes after driving away the heater control unit fell on my passengers feet!

ha, the good old days when a Tuscan had more faults than I could remember!!

Fantastic.
The rest of the world looks black and white or dull gray in your first photo. That says it all to me for TVR´s.

[m3coupe]

Ohh, I like that colour. Very nice.

seconded.

Despite a post saying that it's a "marmite colour", I don't think anyone has said they don't like it.

Fantastic colour. There was one in cascade copper at the Blackpool run back in 06 that looked v similar. V nice.
