Well as it say's on the tin.....

I joined the ranks of Tuscan ownership today!

It's freighting! What does everything do?

There are bits and pieces all over the place in that cabin.

So, I'll probably have loads and loads of questions in due course.

But for now I'll just read the handbook and try to ingest it all.

Ignore what the dials are telling you. They'll all be wrong, and where the same data is displayed in two places, at odds!! Use the seat of your pants (which will be vibrating like one-oh!)

How does the experience compare to the Chimaera?

All I can say at the moment is that it's pleasantly different

Everything is different, pedals are floor mounted, it's brakes feel different, and it’s POWER is unbelievable!

The noise? Well it’s not as loud as the Chim! Well not until next week

And the colour It's Rosso Pearl a slightly richer red than Crimson Starmist, it's gorgeous!

Excellent choice Al. Bloody good news. I rememberthe first time I met you on Brighton seafront with your wife, after we'd all just parked up in the cold and rain, and you were drooling even then.

Piccies please.

I’ll be over for lunch soon, I bring the Mini!

Sorry Tel, was gonna ring you tomorrow.

I got a phone call from your other "mates” about 5 mins after I put the phone down from talking to you.
They actually phoned me up to offer me a couple of Chims. Not really what I was after and I mentioned I wanted a Red Tuscan....

Well it's funny you should say that said Drew!

The rest is history!

See you soon Mate, for that

Don't know what you're on about!

Anyway, you've got to face up to your "Tuscan-frightus".
Best cure is quite simple: go out and enjoy! Spring on it's way, chance of some dry(er) roads and the Red Rocket.......ahhhhh!


Well done, you know you've done the RIGHT THING!
