Decided on a Red Rose TVR Tuscan in the end, 2 owners, FTVRSH, 2002, 14,000 miles. What do you think?

is it a second car?

Frined had a chimera few years back. it 18 months it spent more time back at TVR.

When it worked it was like shit off a shovel. proper grunt.

The sound was undescribeable.

Has it got V8 or stright 6?

Well Im sort of telling a lie! The car is a plain old Tuscan but has had a warranty rebuild to red rose spec. So its only really the engine thats been upgraded.

Hope it doesnt cost me a fortune!!!!

Yeah there will be a load of get out clauses, but at least its some back up if anything major happens.

Good luck with it mate
