Tuscan as a daily?

[sllimr]

Hi Guys,

Having been within a whisper of buying a Tuscan about 10 years ago (moving abroad for work for a while stopped it), I'm thinking about doing it now instead.

What i'm thinking about is how suitable it will be for my commute to work, I work about 5 miles from home and I'm wondering how the engine will cope with the short commute?

Any thoughts from those of you that use them regularly?

It will be an "extra" vehicle but I will use it for my commute in most cases.

Cheers

Rupert

Thanks all, so my dilemma is this, I currently have a Caterham R500 and an Audi A4 Avant, one daily, one weekend. My wife is going to take over the A4 as her daily at some point soon, so I was toying between a Tuscan and a 911 C2S as the car that gets me to work and back (5 miles takes roughly 10 mins for reference) probably 3 or 4 days a week and then the other trips will be out for meetings.

Like the idea of having an armchair for the daily, the A4 has been perfect, but I'm not sure I want two armchairs with the R500 for the weekends, hence looking at something more fun as the second daily drive.

I'm leaning towards the 911 now based on these comments which is what the "sensible" me was thinking before, but then I got the urge for a Tuscan again.

I know I'll need to warm it up as well, but I suspect it may cope better with daily use and it's not got to see a track as that's what the caterham is for, it'll get a decent run across Europe from time to time though and I suspect either would do it nicely.

Cheers, now that's an option I hadn't thought of

Thanks for the help guys, I think that's settled it in my mind, TVR when the garage becomes a double garage and I can afford two weekend toys... get something more "German" for the new daily drive.

I figured that would be the case with regard to winter but the idealist in me was suggesting it would be fine.

See you back here in a few years when I try and scratch that itch again.
