Well, picked the Tuscan RED ROSE up on Saturday, and what a beast, it bloody well fly’s!!!!!!!! I even managed to find a dry bit of road and tried a sensible fast start thought the gears, and found myself at post 70mph (no saying how much post) in no time at all.

The response thought the steering wheel is so much better than the Chimp and the drive is very accurate, It no doubt will take me a bit of time to get used to the clutch but when its goes, is goes. I can’t stop grinning. A M3 had a go and he just got blown away!

Anyway, Code 0, anyone actually know what this means? I get this when I start the car up. I do have the car door open as this stops me pushing the accelerator down. I got the list of error codes from this forum last week.

Also when I bomb about the Speedo bounces about all over the show, The TVR Centre are having a look next week so it should be sorted out but any ideas what this could be.

I stick to the oil temp guide as posted here religiously, but is there anything else I should look for? When I checked the oil it need about 1.25ltrs to get it upto max, and that was 900 miles after its 12000 service, is this excessive.

Car has only done 5645 miles from new.

Cheers for any response.

Cheers all

Yep, I did check the oil when it was hot, first off I didn't and the oid didn't even reg on the END of the dipstick!!! But the after warm I put 1 ltr in and it was 3/4 of the way up, so I'm off to find some more Mobile 1 0/40 and just top it up that bit more. As for the speedo, it's all over the place! but yes, only when driving/launching along the road!

God this car is soooo much fun! Like someone said before on this forum, I miss the v8 growl of the Chimp (took it out on Sunday) but the ride and speed of the Tuscan is fantastic!!!!!!!!

Mine is reg 14/7/2000.

I think this is appalling the TVR have this known 'common' error and it's not fixed. I won't be best happy if it’s off the road for 3 weeks and they I have to pay for the privilege of getting it fixed!

Mine goes in on Saturday, just to have a check-up, but it not scheduled to have work till Wednesday. Amourfend on the front and rear wheel arches on Monday. I WAS hoping to pick it back up for Saturday so I have the car for the Mid Essex meeting on the Sunday.

Lets See if the TVR Centre have a good turnaround!
