After much trepidation have concluded a part/ex. My Chim 500 for a 2000 Tuscan, there was every reason not too but in the end decided it was something i had to do.Regret doing something rather than regreting not doing it was my reasoning and now i cannot wait until Thursday.
Just a quick question, the door openers are on the window switches as opposed to near stereo and the mirror adjust is further down the door, should these be upgraded? Who is responsible for getting it done?
If me how much does it cost? It didn't feel as powerful as my 500 (although i do not think i had it above 5000rpm so its just a casual obs.)What's the 'oil' consumption like?
Regardless of anything else she look's so good (charcoal Reflex) i want to park it in my lounge for at least the first month or so!!

Im doing the same later this week. After taking the Tuscan for a test drive last week my Chimaera felt pedestrian afterwards. That was a very odd feeling!!!

I am also of the opinion better to regret doing something than regret not doing it.

It will be sad to see my Chimaera go, particularly after the head-scratching of choosing the spec, the joy and anticipation of seeing the car in primer at the factory, the agony of the delay of the delivery date and the sheer thrill of driving it but sometimes you have to move on.

The Tuscan I am getting is an October 2000 model but as it has just recently been rebuilt around a new chassis it has had most of the amendments such as the mirror adjusters moved and the centre front catch on the roof added to name a couple.
