Not quite the positive comment he deserves...I should give you a big fat smack

Re. the air-con, going for it...£1,900 and sent back to the factory. OK about the price, but not the date...mid September, unless Mole Valley can pull a few strings.

Having an absolutely great time with mine...huge grin factor, every time I drive it.

Whereabouts are you Neal?

Hi Steve,

Good news about the aircon - thats a good price as well!! (May think about that myself..) I live in Ottershaw near Woking - we met on the Surrey run a couple of weeks ago - I was driving my purple Chimaera W9 TVR - where are you - we should get together for a blast one evening...

I remember meeting, and also that you were getting it from MV.

I'm in New Malden, near Tolworth Tower on the A3 Kingston bypass. Andy, with the blue Tuscan S is around Epsom.

Are you going on the Surrey Run on the 18th??

Neal,

Was your car at MV on Sunday? If so I saw it! Nice.. Did you see the Chameleon Blue Tuscan S in the glass section on the left?

Neal,

It looks fantastic, how do you compare it to the Cerbera so far... the colour is awesome.

Cheers

Royston,

Not really fair to compare as the cerb I had was quite old (97 R)and a 4.5 AJP engine - I have driven a speed six cerb and really liked that engine - However, the Tuscan is awesome both in terms of looks,colour and performance - Very happy with the car and love driving it - so I guess for me its better - Having said that yours does look fantastic!!

Reading this, I feel like I'm a privileged member of the smiley club!

We should all meet up, and block a few lanes of traffic with a Tuscan mobile roadblock.

I bet you can`t wait - the car is such a step forward from the Griffith and Chimaera - I would not have believed it had I not owned and driven both - the handling is so much better and the performance is stunning - my only problem is I keep on running out of road - and I`ve got a standard Tuscan - not a "S" !!

We should get together for a blast - how rare would that be - two Chameleon Blues together!!

Let me know when you get yours

All the best

No wonder I can't find you in the cheap sections Neal – you're in here playing with the big boys!

The Tuscan looks excellent BTW – which one of the two went so you could get it – not the Griff was it? Don't tell me you've got three ...
