Tuscan newbee

Hi everyone, ive been lurking in the background for a while, reading through posts and looking at the classifieds, hopeing that this itch would go away and i would forget about owning a tuscan, alas it seems after sitting in a tuscan recently up at hexham horseless carriages the itch will not go away! only get worse. Im from the north-east, clse to middlesbrough and was told there is a club up this way that has regular meets? Id really like to pop along and have a chat to a few owners if anyone knows where i can find out more information?. Also i was wondering if anyone could email me any usefull buyers guides or links to usefull information on what to look for on a second hand tuscan. Id love a tuscan s but not sure if my funds would stretch that far. As it is id like to learn as much about them as i can and maybe speak to a few like minded individuals .

Plenty of folk on here to talk to as well as loads of info to answer pretty much all your questions!

Buyers guide at the top of the page is a good start, mytuscan.co.uk is another great resource!

Your doing the right thing looking to speak to owners at a club, I'm not from the area but sure there is one you can go to pretty soon!

All I can say is do your research, buy on condition, history and upgrade work carried out as well as either a reputable dealer or someone who has cherished the car!

After that, treat it like it should be and you will get plenty of enjoyment with it!

Hi Dan,

Not sure if you're the guy who rang last week when i was away re my Tuscan, but either way PM sent.

Cheers

Good luck with your search...there are a few threads on buying advice....have a look around.

Dont get hung up on an S or not unless 'it just has to be' because performance wise there is little in it, priority is to buy on condition and history particularly with regards to the engine...

Thanks for all the feedback! ill work my way through the information which will be a big help, ive never actually had a ride in one yet, only heard them as they have drove past but im sure ill not be dissappointed. The only strange thing i found was the pedals seemed a little offset but im sure id get used to that no problem.
