Hi,

had my Tuscan 2 weeks now, love the car already. Winter weather hasn't seen many days for a good spin but managed a few little blasts. Great fun!

I'm wondering, does anyone know how many Tuscans were made? I know all TVR volumes were low but I'd be interested to confirm.

Cheers,

Richard.

cheers,

very interesting. About the figures I'd guess at.

The Tuscan MKII is really rare, I was suprised at how gew of these had been made!

Thanks, Richard.

Didnt realise there were that many more Mk1 Tuscans. According to that there are 10 Mk1's to every 1 MKII (including convertible) - i knew there were far more but didnt realise it was that many.

those figures were very very rough estimates from what I understand

Wow I bought a Tuscan 11 S '06 a couple of months ago I had no idea so few were produced love the car and really the only reason I paid more for the 06 car was I couldn't have lived with the instrument dash of the 05 cars.
The car has been absolutly no trouble at all sine I got it except for one front indicator lamp lens coming loose.
I really do think that these cars are going to be so sought after in a few years. They are truely one of the great motoring experiences that have ever been produced.

Don't think they are that rough..Tuscan Verts differ for what a "girl" in TVR sales told me before TVRs demise..But Ben Lang gave these figures for a guy in New Zealand to prove TVR were a low volume car producer... TVR were always bad with figures...look at the quoted BHP figures if you don't beleive me biggrin

Just makes my car more rare... and unfortutuately if any more Tuscan Convertibles get written off I'll be very lonely.... So upset to hear Yellow Griff has done his in.... cry

And the list doesn't include the 2008 cars.

At 8.9 K on the clock, I am delighted with the 2008 Topless Babe, (2 vert), has carried me all around the continent and UK, couple of minor nit-picking details, but easily solved things. Working between Den Helder and Amsterdam for three months provided some excellent runs, mostly topless, the Netherlands had a good summer!!

She provides a very different motoring experience to the Sagaris, but the finish and drive is superb - really impressed, still grinning and delighted!

Ah but some of the 2008 cars were built in 2006 (apart form those finished in the barn).

Glad you're enjoying the car Richard(Just had to replace the radiator on mine !)

Yes, Tony confirmed that she is a Wesham Barn Cat!!!!!
Topless is so good, missed the Chim badly, but this makes up for that!!
