TVR Tuscan 2S in Cascade Copper
Discussion
Not arrived as yet as she is being prepared, but this one really has got my stomach churning! It will be my seventh TVR. They built circa 50 MK2 Tuscan S, in this colour its possibly one of 2 or 3.
S spec includes a (boldly) claimed 400bhp, gas discharge headlights, close ratio 'box, larger bore exhaust, bigger brakes, colour coded boot carpet and air con. This car has the optional full hide rather than the standard half hide too. I will update the thread on collection!

Awesome looking car. How is it to own and drive?
... and what happened to the T350.
Hi Tref! Still awaiting collection... We agreed a front end paint as part of the deal as there were a few stone chips, some webs in the gel coat and the splitter had been caught at some stage. Needless to say getting the paint right is proving a nightmare! I'm hoping to collect on Saturday.... and what happened to the T350.
The T350 went last October - she took us to Monaco and back without a glitch. Still miss the car; the one thing that led me to change was that it just felt slightly lacking in grunt after coming from Cerbs. The 3.6 is arguably a sweeter engine than the 4 litre but it just wasn't quite quick enough.
How's the McLaren?

McLaren is another level altogether. So so fast and composed.
Considering the fact that it is 14 or so years old, these just do not age, they are my definition of timelessness. I'd even go as far as saying they are still futuristic looking. The interior is just as pleasing on the eyes as the exterior is.
The paint job is amazing, I bet you could stare at it for hours and hours at a time and never see the same effect twice..
Lovely car OP, can't wait for updates, thanks for posting.

I am hoping to pick up my tuscan 2S shortly. Have owned it 2 years. Was originally swordfish colour then a previous owner sprayed it blue and following an atempted theft, insurance company paying for a respray. Seemed boring keeping it blue so went for 'Seat Samoa Orange'. Similar to this cascade copper colour.
