With recent talk of selling or buying a Tuscan Convertible it got me a little itchy for something new.
I spent the long weekend in Germany (Monday was a holiday) split between work and driving around. I sat at a Autobahn Service Station cafe considering my options and looking at the rear end of my Tuscan as most of her was hidden behind an Opel Omega.

Then Omega man, having had a good look round my Tuscan drove away leaving my Tuscan in full view.



SELL, you must be joking. I must be going soft in my old age.

Cars like this can never be replaced, you will lament forever if you sell....Give yourself a pinch and then blip the throttle, it will keep the brain thinking same as the heart biggrin

A moment of clarity, we all need them now and again.

I too had one the other weekend. It's very easy to assume that something far more expensive and new must be better. But I got my bro to pick me up from the train station the other day in my tuscan and it was quite a sight in the sunshine. Roof stowed in the boot and me behind the wheel it was snarling, screaming S6 savagery all the way home. Stunning and totally unique. The tuscan for all it's foibles is like no other car. It's inexplicably different in character to the other TVRs too.

The car park test. Park and walk off, turn round and see how much the Tuscan sticks out, it's usually between 10 and 11 on a scale of 1-10.
