Its a sad day...

[BDM]

Well after a light dusting of snow, the sun dried the roads, a perfect drive could have been had...

I however had to say goodbye to my pride & joy :'( I defo understand now how people get emotional letting go of there car as you put so much time in, money and effort. I think the hardest thing was having someone else in the driving seat then hearing & watching it drive off. I was very protective and never let anyone else drive it so just hearing it drive off into the distance left me feeling very empty. I am however glad it has gone to another enthusiast. A very nice gentlemen from the TVR Car Club over in Germany who i am sure will treat it with the same love and care that i did... So if you are from Germany expect to see the beast driving around your country now...

I want to say thanks to EVERYONE on this forum for all the help and advice. I dont think i am going to go far. I will remain a memeber of the TVR Car Club and a regular user of the forum. Hopefully if all goes to plan i will be back in the drivers seat again of another of Blackpools finest...

Thanks everyone...

Don`t be sad mate. Your Tuscan got into very good hands of a true enthusiast.
Who else would be crazy enough to drive the car over through Belgium to Germany at minus 2°C with 10 inches of new snow over here...
I cross my fingers that it gets here safely and I am sure it will first thing receive a nice cleaning off the salt.
I can`t wait to see the car & colour in real at the next TVR CC Germany meeting.

What are you going to use the funds for / will become your new toy now ?

It is a hard one to decide...I have always umm'ed and aah'd on selling mine...then just cant come to it

[Robertjp]

Allow me to introduce myself as the new owner of the wonderful Moondust-Tuscan. As BDM said, I`m Member of the German TVR Car Club. Since 2001 I own a 86` TVR 350i (wedge), but now it was time to extend. BDM, I thank you again for the good deal and I promise I will guard the Tuscan like gold.

Hi Udo,
Just after a free coffee.
I'm based part of the time in Salzgitter.

Anyway, Congratulations.
Happy driving she looks fantastic.

Commisserations to BDM but I'm sure you'll be back in a TVR seat sooner or later.

Tony.

Nice one Udo, I owned that car for 3 years before selling it to Brad, he seems to have forgotten that part of the deal was i had first refusal on buying it back??? lol. Look after it mate.... I did. All the best with it.

[Udo]

Thank you, Adey, for the good wishes. Now it`s too late, to buy it back:-) Unfortunately I cannot drive it currently regarding the winter-weather in Germany. If you want to see the car again: if you are in Germany feel free to come for a coffee. Perhaps you will meet Tony and Chris:-)
