as a kiwi Tuscan RR owner living in London, I would be very hesitant in taking my car out to NZ without a full factory service team and parts supply... Seriously though, would love to hear about any kiwi TVR stories from back home !! Cheers Whitey PS. A Tuscan in white ? not my first choice...

Are you sure it was a Tuscan Speed 6? The last I heard they weren't allowed into the country due to the lack of suitable type-approval (the guy who ran the Auckland dealership, Glyn Jones, was trying to get one in for Jonah Lomu). I spoke to the dealer yesterday (Auckland) and they haven't heard of one in the country. To my knowledge there are several 'M' series cars, several wedges, a handful of 'S's and somewhere in the region of 30 Chimaeras and Griffiths. Oh, and there's a single 4.5 Cerbera belonging to the guy who owns Cookie-time. I don't suppose this car could be a Tuscan racer could it? There are several of those in NZ, none of them road legal to my knowledge, but they are here.
