It does look very nice, and would have to be for the price. Don’t know anything about that one.
Not many low mileage, original, nice 50th come up, so if this is one its worth the money. _________________ James

James,
it's Chris ex093 here, I am looking at buying it.
Yes agreed tidy and low millage hence I think it's worth it.
Does Mr Tonks still have my old plate?
M15oth
If so I may want to buy it back....
Hopefully getting it tomorrow from Surrey so long as the garage accepts my swap....
A very limited edition TVR Tuscan, one of only two in the world.
Any way hope your all well and having fun.
if anyone knows any more about this vehicle it would be appricated.
Cheers

A full race Tuscan GT in Lamborghini Diablo Purple, cream leather.
28.5k on the clock, receipts of over £56k on the car for work completed since birth in 2000.
Fully sorted no problems new eveythings, I would take you for a blast if you have a "G" suit to hand.
547 bhp in a carbon fibre / kevlar race car - it has been proven 0-60 1.89 seconds and the one in Russia at the TVR show room made 215mph before the test driver bottled it!
Fast yes, daft yes, good fun - very much so.
0-165mph-0 in a mile within a mille without breaking a sweat.
Fancy a toy?
giveme a bell 07764 683388 asap several after it.
Sadly I couldn't do the swap with 272, the garage bottled the deal at last minute. _________________ Sadly not a 50th member any longer more like a hanger-on if you know what i mean.

That told you James
I had a Chimaera for a couple of years, my pal still has one. we use for Le Mans - great car, great fun, but not worthy of this beast,
Those numbers speak volumes
That rich Russian spoilt jouvinille pratt has a lot to answer to for sticking his nose into heritage British motoring
Any left ?
- I call :
Caterham
Morgan
(Whisper) of Bristol
The rest, whilst sound British Bulldog are not - Aston Martin is Ford,
Bentley is BMW, Lotus is Far East etc etc

TVR Were in trouble before the Russian took over. So slating him is a bit out of hand. Wheeler wanted out. And the young russian with his fathers help was nieve enough to stump up the £15 million for it. TVR were signed to the wall long before with the whole Speed 6 debacle. _________________ Chrysler 300c Startech

I had a Chimaera 4.5 then a Tuscan , fantastic cars with so much smile factor.
In the 3 years of owning both they never broke down .
The garage said it was due to every day use and not just weekend use.
Well thats not entirely true as i did loose the carbon roof section on my Chimeara one time but tvr said the roof in its up position was not use to 165 mph+so it popped off and was never found ...... £1000 for a new one .
I fancy a Cerbera now as it has 4 seats and is a little more family friendly . _________________ Old owner of restored GB 063 .
