I've got a couple of tool kits... I'm pretty sure they specifically for TUSCANs and the tool is for poping the side spring locks on the bonnet... I use my fingers but I suppose if you've got fat hands they wouldn't fit... The socket is for the main bonnet nuts.... Haven't got any spare torches but they aren't the best anyway, just look nice in the box... Have you got the cotton gloves ???? biggrin

It was advertised as Tuscan/T350 and i do have the gloves toolkit is unused but torch knackered which is a shame.
Ebayer has offered compensation which is good but i wanted a new toolkit.
I wasn't aware there were different kitsfrown

I think they were all the same and you were lucky to get one.

Received a email today from the makers of the toolkit,

Dear Mr. Hughes,
we still have a few of the swivel head torch from the original TVR-
toolkit in our stock, just the same as the complete set, which due to
financial problems at TVR were not supplied.
Please advise your address, so that we can send the torch free of
charge. You only would have to add the batteries.

Kind regards from a sports car-fanatic

A very kind gesture indeed and i thought i was wasting my time.bowthumbup

They could of supplied the batterieshehe

I didn't even realise the toolkit came with a torch! Any chance of the name and address and I'll see if they'll sell me one please?
