I would be interested to hear any comments and obviously see some pics of specs etc....
YES ME ! TRYING TO POST PICS HAVING TROUBLE
I'm sure you'll get loads of offers to host them!
Or...you could mail Lucca and have them put on www.Sleepy-fish.com (and then you could link to them on here)

How does it compare to previous cars you have owned particularly the Tuscan. I am really trying to jusitfy a purchase to myself and have previously owned a griff500, chimaera and Cerb speed six.
I know youre still running it in but getting the lowdown from an owner rather than a dealer would be great.
Enjoy the weekend

NOT RUNNING IN ANYMORE, JUST KEEPING AN EYE ON ME OIL TEMP - JUST BEEN OUT FOR A BLAT
THE TUSCAN I HAD WAS A GREAT CAR, I HAD NO PROBS WITH IT AT ALL, BUT I WOULD SAY THAT ON B ROADS THE TUSCAN WAS A BIT FIGGITY AND WITH THE ASSISTED STEERING I FOUND IT CHUCKED YOU ABOUT A BIT - SOME TIMES DANGEROUSLY BUT OVER ALL A GREAT CAR
THE FEZZA I THOUGHT WAS CRAP -NOT FAST,TOO WIDE BUT BETTER HANDLING THAN THE TUSC ON B ROADS BUT DIDNT HAVE THE RAW POWER OF THE TUSCAN -IT SEEMED LIKE A LEAP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION WHEN I BOUGHT THE TUSCAN I WAS IMPRESSED
IVE OWNED A COUPLE OF PORKERS NICE CARS BUT JUST ABIT BORING
I WAITED MONTHS FOR THE SAGARIS (NEVER DONE THAT BEFORE) IT JUST SEEMED THAT IT WOULD NEVER COME AND LOST INTREST IN IT A BIT WITH ALL THE CHANGES THAT WERE MADE TO THE CAR OVER THE LAST 6 TO 8 MONTHS. JUST MADE IT WORST EVEN WHEN I PICKED IT UP I WASNT THAT BOTHERED (EVEN LET THE MISSUS DRIVE IT OF THE FORECOURT)
WASNT TILL THE NEXT DAY I PULLED IT OUT THE GARAGE FOR ME FIRST LOOK HERE GOES:
PAINT FINISH WAS EXCELLENT.
IVE HAD A FEW PEOPLE AND FRIENDS COMMENT HOW NICE THE INTERIOR WAS- TVR HAVE MADE REAL EFFORT HERE, EVERY THING SPOT ON, IM GLAD THEY GOT RID OF THE COLOUR CODED INSIDE DOOR PANNELS AND CHANGED THEM FOR THE CARBON LEATHER ONES- THEY LOOK GREAT, REALLY ADDS TO THE FINISH
THE FIRST 1000 MILES I HAD TO KEEP IT UNDER 3000RPM BUT STILL MANAGED TO DO SOME OVERTAKING, I FOUND IT SOLID ON THE MOTORWAY - ALMOST DRIVES ITSELF ON SMALL A AND B ROADS THATS WHERE THE DIFFERENCE LIES ,
THE FRONT OF THE CAR SEEMS TO HUNT THE TARMAC ABSOLUTELY PLANTED, IT REALLY SEEMS TO SUCK ITSELF TO THE ROAD GREAT FOR CONFIDENCE
AND NOW IVE GOT LOTS MORE REVS ON LOAN ITS GETTING SCARY
YOU DONT GET ANY OF THE REAR END DIVE UNDER HARD ACCELERATION IT JUST LEAPS FORWARD AND PUSHES YOU HARD BACK INTO THE SEAT
IVE GOT TO DO A TRACK DAY IN THIS SOON I NEED TO FIND ITS LIMITS, DONT WANT TO GET BITTEN IN THE WRONG PLACE (I THINK SOME OF THAT COMES FROM THE UNPREDICTABILITY OF THE TUSCAN)
I DONT KNOW IF THE SAGARIS IS GOING TO BE QUICKER THAN THE TUSCAN IN A STRAIGHT LINE, PROBABLY NOT MUCH IN IT.
NEWS FROM THE FACTORY IS THAT THE NEW 4.0S ENGINES ARE CREATING MORE POWER FROM THE ONES BEFORE
BUT WITHOUT A DOUBT THE SAGARIS IS GOING TO KICK ITS ARSE AROUND THE TWISTY STUFF
NOT SO MUCH THE WIDOW MAKER AS BEFORE
QUITE PROBERLY THE BEST HANDLING CAR IVE OWENED
PROBERLY END UP ON A FLAT BED THIS WEEKEND AFTER ALL THAT

Picking up my car next Friday if all goes according to plan.
If the dealer does not already have your car you will not be getting it next week. Mine was supposed to have been delivered to the dealer yesterday, but it did not leave the factory in time.
The Factory is now closed until April 4th so nothing will be leaving until then.
I would agree with FKN's assessment of the older Tuscan - I came out of Tuscan onwership partly because of build quality issues (eg. needed full front end repspray as paint was flaking off within a month and dashboard display always showing errors etc), but also because I never felt in complete control on B roads. I'm very much tempted back by the Sagaris so would be interested in other responses from new owners.
