very nice! On french plates, did you have any issues registering it?

Oh, I think that you are missing your front undertray spoiler.

yes, that's true

Actually, I have got one, but I don't know how I should mount it under the car... It seems there are 3 bolts but nothing else and I'm afraid to loose it in case it's not properly fixed.

Have you got someone over there that can service it for you? Or are you heading over on the Tunnel now and then?

Cheers,

yes I have a great mechanic man who takes care of her like his own eyes... he has made a great job in servicing after the car went from Italy, he has done a tappet adjustment and now the car pushes hard with a great sound I am in love with.

Brilliant, that's more than half the battle! "Like his own eyes" - good phrase!

Looks just like the 'S' version of mines .. black with cream leather inside, stunning :-)

They go faster you know.

it's not black, it's a kind of midnight blue actually. So it might be a slower onewink

Superb Sébastien - where in France are you going to be using it regularly? I always find such a positive reaction from anyone in France when using the Tuscan so enjoy using it.

I will use it in Burgany where I live.

I also would like to go to Le Mans Classic with the TVR Car Club to which I have registered a few months ago but I am wondering if it is too late or not to get a subscription to Le Mans Classic...

Not too late to go at all - see the le Mans forum where there are lots of people planning to go.

It looks like it will be a superb year and you will most likely be the only French registered Tuscan there smile

Hello mate, you'll love the tuscan, congrats on purchase. To me the Colour looks like Starmist blue smile VERY dark blue, with silver metallic flakes? looks black when dark, but has a nice tinge of blue when sunny and warm?

Hey Supercopa,

gorgeous color mix.
It looks that Italy is a good place to find those very few LHD TuscanS. I just got my new Chameleon orange baby home from there as well.

Hope to meet you somewhere in the Vogeses or Ardennes on day.

cheers,
Funky Jo

There are around 20 TVRs going to Classic Le Mans from our region of the TVRCC. We managed to get confirmed hotel bookings in Le Mans town some months ago and will be arriving Friday midday.

If you are struggling to get a ticket, we might have a spare weekend ticket including grandstand seat, paddock entrance and Blue car parking.
