Hi Everyone,

I probably posted in the wrong place originally !

Photos of 2007 specification Tuscan are here:

What does the team think ?

Well as a proud owner of a tuscan with Sparco seats I can report that they are good seats and importantly for me, comfortable on a long run. Support is a little better than the old seats but not a huge amount. Most noticable around the shoulders perhaps. Main drawback is that you can't remove the seat cushion like you used to which was great for more support and esp for track days to allow helmet clearance. Further evidence that TVR design is cleverer than many give it credit for.

Summary, not exactly worth part exchanging your 2005 tuscan 2 for.

The new wheels don't really do it for me.

Agreed. Those wheels don't work well on the Tuscan at all....too angular and at odds with the organic shapes of the Tuscan bodyshell. I've yet to see a wheel design that looks better than the spiders on a Tuscan.

I ordered a set of the new wheels, but the quality was absolutely shocking. They were three shades of silver and the castings were appalling.

Didn't take much for a dealer to change an 06 car into an 07.....change the seats and put new wheels on it...Don't see any other changes...and I doubt if it was produced recently at the factory...could someone find out the build date or VIN number.

Looks very like this One except for the seats & wheels!
