Well no going back now! Agreed the spec today with Ian at Castle TVR, took 2 hours just to agree on the colour....but in the end 'Cascade Copper' won the day!

Castle TVR were very helpful and I was there for 4 hours agreeing the full spec.

The interior will be all black leather with 'Burnt Orange' stitching throughout (including on the steering wheel), complemented with 'Burnt Orange' carpet piping around the black carpet.

The factory will do all alloy switch gear, ie I won't have the copper/yellow knobs and instrumentation which all Tuscans come with as standard. So this should look quite cool against a black interior.

To complement the black interior I am having the anthracite 18' alloys rather than silver + the front diffuser will be colour coded as body.

The rear exhausts will be upgraded to the new Titanium sports exhaust now available to Tuscans...sounds great!

Thats it! Hopefully just have to wait 6 weeks for delivery!

I will send pic's once I get to the factory, or when I get delivery.

Anyone with pics of a Tuscan in Cascade Copper would be appreciated...give me a good idea that I've mad the right choice in colour...:-) The people I have spoken to at Castle and customers that were there on Saturday thought it was an amazing colour anyway.

Tks Simon.

Traded in my lovely bright yellow 4.5 Chim :-( but the Tuscan 'S' is just awesome and nothing can compare with it on the road in my view....I can't wait :-))

Sounds like a great colour combo Alf! Had a look at the colour cards at HHC a coupl of weeks back, and must admit 'Cascade Copper' looked fabulous. Like you say it would be good to see it fully on a car. Also saw a colour very similar called 'Pure Fire Prizm' - perhaps a little more gold in it. Do post pics as soon as you have it, can't wait!
