How do you tell the differance between a standard 4.0 and a RR version, with most Tuscan's now having drilled brakes and sitting on 18's? Are there any aditional items to indicate the variation and does the V5 state RR or Red Rose?

Not taking the you know what here but I think it was marked in Felt tip on the rocker cover!

I think P7ULG's right, there's is no visible difference?
It's all a lot easier now that the RR has become the S with its different back end and front lip spoiler to the standard Tuscan 3.6.

...except has anyone bought a 3.6 Tuscan instead of the still available standard 360 bhp 4.0 ?

I also heard you could order the S with the standard rear end as well....

OK so I'm sure they're 'using up' the 4.0l engines in the standard Tuscan but I doubt if you could have an S without the lip/boot spoiler?
Aren't they there for downforce so removing them would make the care unstable at high speeds making is unsafe?
Anyway I personally prefer the vertical light arrangement of the S over the standard Tuscan's low down lights.

No more unsafe and unstable than the standard Red Rose Tuscan (i.e. near enough all the power but without the downforce) and yes I have heard that you can get an S without the spoilers - not sure about the light arrangement though
