Should the Tuscan have a gasket on the boot lid?
There's one on the frame.
I have one that's falling off not sure where it's suppose to fit i think the previous owner may have fitted it as a aftermarket thing.

This is something your previous owner must have added. Not aware of particular problems with water getting into the boot so don't see why you would need this? It could be to try and stop the drips falling into the boot when you open the boot lid - this can be annoying when you use the car in the rain.

Clean looking car - looks like it was well looked after!

a lot of tuscans we have had in for repair have had the same seal in place so i think it belongs there.

My 2001 Tuscan also has this - but I hadn't noticed until today.

My 2001 car doesn't have it but my boot lid is different from earlier cars. Perhaps it changed again.
