Just realised I've owned my Tuscan for two years today and I'm not looking to replace it. Normally around 18 months into ownership and I begin the search for a replacement, which included my Chim (and I thought that was a keeper), but I haven't felt the need with the Tuscan..............is this the one?

Just as a footnote that's 10k+ fun filled miles biggrin

so called

I know what you mean, I'm also coming up to 2 years with my Tuscan in April.
This time 2 years ago I was still crying over the loss of my first Tuscan.
I did recently started pining over a Bentley Continental GT but various people from Italy to the UK to the US have given me e-mail slaps across the face (including my wife and that wasnt actually by e-mail) and knocked me back to my senses.

great stuff!

I have been a proud owner for 5 months as of yesterday, and am enjoying every minute of it. As someone recently quoted on PH, accelerating in a Tuscan is 'like driving down the face of a cliff'...

one of my favourite statements from a fellow PH'er

Had mine 18 months, the first 12 of which were quite traumatic!!

But...A blast in the sun yesterday to and from work with the roof off....it certainly gives you a silly grin.

So easy to forget how good a package Tuscans are...rip your face off acceleration, jaw dropping looks, roof off GT touring and practicality if you want it...and the noise is in its own league biggrindriving

Just what would replace them??

Cant think of much in my budget and that can do anything quite as well. My wife wants a DB9 / AMV8 .... maybe one day, but the models i could afford would not perform as well as my Tuscan does frown

Never selling mine, absolutely love it.
I seriously believe the prices of these are going to start to rise in the not too distant future as well.

I agree, seem to be £1000 to £1500 more at the moment, though that may be seasonal.

So if it's seasonal and I'm not ready to part company yet, suppose I'll have to keep it for at least another 12 months more then scratchchinyesthumbup
