Can someone explain why this wouldn't be a good idea?
Discussion
While looking for my next car, I spotted this in the classifieds:
http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1327396.htm
Now... to the untrained, testosterone driven eye... that looks awesome value for money, but I expect that's probably not the case.
Why shouldn't I buy that car?

Ha, I put that in a thread in GG this morning.
For that price you could get the engine rebuilt by.. erm the place that I can't remember the name of! that gives warranty on the engine.
Would also make an interesting track project if someone has the funds
How easy would it be to stick another (different, more reliable) engine in there if something went seriously mammaries-skywards?For that price you could get the engine rebuilt by.. erm the place that I can't remember the name of! that gives warranty on the engine.

Do you think the 1.3 JTD out of a panda would fit it?

Why has it not got a rear window?
Errr, 'cos as per the advert it is described as a 'c o n v e r t i b l e' which in the case of a Tuscan means the roof panel and rear window can be removed and, as Stainless said, "it's probably in the boot". In'it clever of TVR to come up with such a radical design!

Why is everyone assuming it needs a re-build? 
It had one 12000 miles ago. Perhaps the chap desperately needs the cash?
hmmm maybe I should PM him to say he needs to put the price up by 3k so people will go and view it.
To say it needs a re-build because it has a SP6 engine in and is cheap, without actually having viewed it is crock of s
te statement.

I was thinking more in terms of buying a TVR as my only car simply because I can afford to buy it outright...It had one 12000 miles ago. Perhaps the chap desperately needs the cash?
