Hi all,
Can anyone point me in the direction of a website or attach a picture showing the exact dimensions of a Tuscan. It's a long story so I won't bother you with it but lets just say I need an accurate estimate of the bonnet angle.

Cheers.

Have you tried calling Blackpool or your nearest dealer
I know this sounds a bit obvious but this must be the first line of attack ?

if there is a dealer or independant near you get a Tuscan log book, there is an accurate side view line drawing in there that you could photocopy

I thought you wanted a picture of the side of a Tuscan? The advert was just that...

Cheers guys, I meant a side sketch with all the dimensions including the angle of the bonnet. I have plenty of pictures of my own Tuscan.

Isn't getting a ruler and protractor out and using them on a hardcopy of that picture good enough ?

Locuzade, perhaps you'd better bore us with the details of why you want this, I am intrigued now. And, in any case the nose is curved so surely the angle will always be changing? Rich...

Sorry mate can't bore you with the details but lets just say its legal and it could change the way the cops look at TVRs in the future.

Oh dear, has Mr. Plod had a tantrum because his little laser gun was deflecting off the sexy curves of your motor then? Thus preventing an accurate reading?

Just a guess with a lot of hope attached!!
