Has anyone got a photo of a Tuscan or T350 in iced titanium that they could post on here for me? Thanks.

Not a Tuscan or T350 but mine is titanium. See profile.

Unrepentant,

this one is iced titanium and there's one other in a different light (under members)

That is utterly gorgeous. These cars are definitely the old 60's Aston DBs reincarnated.

Thanks everyone. Cerbie looks fantastic Dave. I think Iced Titanium with black leather is going to be my choice for the new Tuscan. Does anyone know what type of paint TVR classify Iced titanium as?

[fjt9]

it's a metalic paint.

i went for grigio titainio in the end, cant remember why as metalic is £400 cheaper hope i have not made a mistake!!!

(Grigio Titanio is what I plan on ordering too )

i have gone for anthracite and red interior, with of course anthracite wheels. cant wait

Exactly the same taste as me then! Slight variation is I rather mulberry hide, would like to mix portland grey too, but not sure if that's poss w/the new seats...?

So then, have you test-driven the Sagaris!?!

i also wanted mulberry, but from what i remember the i think it seemed to clash a little with the anthracite hide.

i believe they only have a working car at the factory, and i was told that it was possible to take it out for a spin on the understanding that it was still under development. but the only day that i had off in november was when the car was somewhere else and they are closed on the weekends so test drive will just have to wait till jan when i have a few more days off. will keep you posted

...? you had a mix of anthracite coloured hide, which didn't work with mulberry?

that would be great - thanks! Think you will get to test at +100mph..?

sorry mulberry clashed with the anthracite hide.

would be nice to find a quiet stretch of road with no one looking

Is Grigio Titanium darker? I want the JB AM DB5 look.

Judging by the pics posted Iced Titanium is just TVR marketing speak for silver?

[davetherave1970]

Thanks for the kind comments.
Mine is called Titanium Silver and I was told it's a Lotus colour.

It's darker than silver, more sort of titanium coloured.

(There are about 7 trillion different versions of silver from what I can see).

So much silver it's hard to choose, eh!

- Titanium is the darker, more gun metal silver

- Iced/Brilliant/Lexus are what we'd call silver silver

- Grigio Titanio is silver with a blue/grey hue to it - my personal favourite:

Grigio Titanio is lighter that Iced Titanium. It's a Ferrari colour and is the slightly darker cousin of Grigio Alloy.

I had a Tusc in Grigio Titanio and it is a suberb finish - so much so that I'm having the RX resprayed in it next year!

I think www.davidgeraldtvr.com have a selection of titaniums and alloys in at the mo under both the new car section and the used car section - could be worth a look.

All the best

Popped into my dealer this morning. The consensus is that it is very hard to tell the difference between Iced Titanium and Grigio Titanio. Except that Iced Titanium costs £400 less.
