Went to Snetterton at the weekend to watch the British GT Championship, took the Tuscan, 250 mile round trip and she purred up the M11 like a dream. 00.00155 MPH (do what you like with the decimal point). On our arrival at the track, we were heading towards the general car park when the marshalls ushered me into a different car park, this one was for special cars, we felt like film stars, MY TVR WAS THE STAR OF THE SHOW BY MILES, and considering I was parked next to a Jag 220 (the Tuscan in Cerrion Silver woops it anyday).
We went to Snetterton to see one car in particular which was an Orange Marcos driven by Chris Baighton, unfortunately it broke down after one lap leaving us all very punchured however, I can now say say I overtook Chris Baighton at Snetterton, being it on the A11 on the way home and he was in his 7.5 ton car transporter and I was in the Tuscan.

My point is, the Tuscan was unexpectadly in the paddock with some very special cars (I didnt even wash it prior, and it had thousands of liquidated flies over the bonnett and windscrean) and it looked in a class of its own, if attention was the judge then it stole the show by miles - I MUST HAVE MADE TVR SOME SALES.
