Anyone know how these two cars differ in terms of handling and performance? Are they chalk and cheese. Just interested...

I have a T350 but had a Tuscan 2 for a few weeks whilst mine was being repaired. I also had a Sagaris for 2 weeks as the Tuscan was the biggest pile of sh*t ever. It was pretty much impossible to floor the Tuscan in first without the back wheels spinning. It didn't feel as stable as the T350 and didn't handle or corner as well. It was no way near as loud as the T350 either but did feel slightly faster once I was not wheel spinning in first.

I then switched the Tuscan for the Sagaris as the Tuscan had so many problems with it. The Sagaris was the best out of the three. It just needs to be a bit louder but I'm sure a decent sports exhaust will sort that.

Not chaulk and cheese at all in my experience.I had a mk1 Tuscan S and that could be a handfull on occasions which is one of the reasons I bought the T350 as it was a lot more planted and usable.However I did test a Tuscan 2 few weeks after getting the T350 and it was just as well sorted as the T350 on B roads as well as at high speed on dual carrageways. Any car will handle badly if its not set up properly off course.
What you will find is the Tuscan feels a bigger car even though its essentially the same chassis.
