Tuscan 2 S or Sagaris
Discussion
I had this choice 9 months ago. I love roof down motoring so for me it was a no brainer. Sag is a cool car, but for me roof off, window out, wind in the hair!! Both are pretty cars, both are insanely fast but for the summer we've just had there was no contest. Tuscan 2 S all the way....
I've owned a Tuscan for two years and then a Sag for one year. Loved both, but found the Sag more... useable, I think the best word is.
It depends what you want. The Tuscan is a great drive, but always left me feeling a bit nervous driving it. The Sag on the other hand is just a pleasure to drive full stop, but I do miss the roof

Yours was the earlier model Tuscan. A Tuscan 2 is a completely different proposition.It depends what you want. The Tuscan is a great drive, but always left me feeling a bit nervous driving it. The Sag on the other hand is just a pleasure to drive full stop, but I do miss the roof
Personally of the two I'd go for the Tuscan 2 S, they're a very rare car. But only one with the T350/Tamora/Sagaris dials, not the squint-omatic dials.

Why is you money better in a Sag? They made far less Tuscan 2's than Sag's. They made less than 25 Tuscan 2 S models and even less of the Mk "3"'s.
You mean they 'sold' less of the Tuscans. The Sagaris was more popular with the buying public (both cars cost about the same when new) so it makes sense that they will be more popular on the second hand market. You only have to look in the clasified to see which one is holding it's value.Oh and i've a Tuscan 2 Convertible and don't care if it holds it's value or not

Suppose it depends on what you want it for. If it's just weekend cruising/playing then the Sag fits the bill. If however you plan on doing a few miles and trips that require luggage, then the Tuscan's boot will take all you can throw at it plus the roof comes off.
I recently sold my mk1 and miss it already bar the slightly ropey interior build quality but mk2's should fix that.
Once I have my house purchase sorted, (the reason for selling in the first place) i'll be in a similar prediciment to you and although I prefer the aggresive looks of the sag, I think the useability of the Tuscan will win me over.

As others have said it comes down to what you want from the car, both are exclusive and I’m sure both are very similar in the way they drive. Only you will know if you will make use of the roof down option. Whichever you go for I’m sure you will be very pleased in the outcome! Once you have decided on the model the harder decision is what color to go for from the wide variety
Technically/handling wise a well sorted T2S comes very close to a Sag but it takes some time/trouble/budget to get to the Sag level. I went for the Tuscan in the end because of the removable roof and I like the body style better (personal). And mine came in the very rare colour I wanted...
Both are outrageous, it's a matter of personal taste, try them!
