I have been toying with the idea of getting a replacement Scoob (STI 99&gt Or a TVR Tuscan (yes the TVR is about twice the price but money no object when you are in love)

To say i am amazed at the difference in insurance cost would be an understatement.

Have been researching insurance costs for both and i can simply say that the TVR TUSCAN 4.2 is HALF the cost to insure to an STI (Tesco, Elephant NU etc)

4.2 Litres, no ABS and RWD!

My details: 28, 5 yrs NCB Garaged, and Surrey Post Code

Anyone got any comments on the tuscan or bad feedback (apart from the ****** never starting.

How can u not love this thing???

My brother had a Chimera, he always maintained TVR insurance was relatively cheap because no thief was insane enough to drive one

Thumbs up

What a monster motor, 0-100 in 8.08 seconds would leave even a FQ330 more than 300m behind @ 100 mph---that is not a slow car...

problem is............ If you FU"K-UP you will be!
Driven a couple; you have to be very brave or very stupid to go out in the wet...
I honestly can't believe TVR for not adding ABS, its tantamount to giving someone a noose and and stool... madness!
I do love it though!
