Tuscan Mk1 has many issues on early models that can be found on the TVR Tuscan gassing forum at www.pistonheads.co.uk ...............

Lets hope the new Mk2 just out now has better quality and reliability.......

My personal experience after owning several TVRs would be not to buy an early Tuscan without either a warranty or plenty of cash. Also depends if its going to be a daily driver like mine were....
