i know its not the most important question, but what sort of mpg do you get out of a tuscan and can they be used for a daily driver?

I think you'll find most average at low 20's "combined" with a bit of hooning.

some say that the sp6 engine is better driven regularly, and many people here do use it as a daily drive.

Will cost the earth and kill the value of your car if you plan to do mini-cab mileage in it though! smile

only would do 10k a year and as you can buy them for 15k wasnt too bothered about the depreciation side.

I think they look great, and to be honest i am more likely to buy a 111R elise (exige too pricey at mo for me) but i need 28-30 mpg as this is what my 330 bmw returns.

Cheers though

28-30 mpg would be highly unusual/unachievable for a Tuscan in my view.

I think sometimes the thought of it is better than the reality. It is on the wet cold mornings when you wish you have a car that was not going to bite you if you are not on top of your game. Used the Chimaera for a while, not sure I could do it every day but then again it depends how old you are.

This is a joke, right. Have you thought about a 330D, Jason?
