Evening,

Has anyone seen a stunning or particularly outstanding Tuscan for sale recently? I would prefer to use a main dealer - but there seems to be a lot fewer around at the moment than there was about a month ago!


Thx

Tony

I think people tend to take their cars off the market once the sun comes out...

I am after a blue colour of some descrption with magnolia hide. A little boring perhaps, but I like the combination.

I haven't really seen a Tuscan I didn't like (apart from perhaps that yellow one at David Gerald) so will probably end up with one nothing like a blue one!

Aren't they all pretty much specced to the same standards? What is considered a 'must have' option (apart from fat spiders)?

Summer is here (almost) and I feel a Tuscan in the pipeline soon. I just hope I get somewhere near what I paid for my Cerb - that should give me a £35k budget to find a Tuscan.

Thanks! Named after De Niro in Once Upon A Time In America - and the 4.2 speaks for itself!

What's made you wanna change??
(Had thought a Cerb would be my next move but think I may also be getting won over by a Tusc!)
Henley have a nice Crystal Topaz one that's hardly turned a wheel in 2 years (2300 miles) which could be bad as well as good!!

Yes, just like that one Girlracer. That is precisely what I am after.

I need to get rid of the Cerb and would prefer a reputable dealer (I know they cost more) to take it off my hands to save time and give me peace of mind.

The Cerb is awesome - will probably miss it. I just want something newer and since summer is (nearly)here - it has to be a Tuscan really!

(ignore the Suzuki reference - The Tiv's are in their used car section) and there is a GTS Pearl Blue one at Castle.

Ah, Simon - a name change? What bought that on?

thanks for those links - the suzuki place seems to have a few. Looks like I may be heading south to try them out!

Do you have a URL for Dream Machines?

Anyone want to buy a rather 'loud' Cerb?

Tony

p.s Forgive the ignorance - but what is Lamonta trim?

www.dreammachines.org.uk (and the car is gorgeous)

And I believe lamonta is some form of fake suede could be wrong though...

Edited to add click on the pic of the car and you can view the interior as well

Thanks!

I can't seem to get the pics of the Lambourghini viola metallic Tuscan at Dream Machines..is it just me?

Yes, the Rolex Blue looks great - even better than on a watch face! That one seems to be fairly cheap as well. Are they likely to take my Cerb as p/x without much fuss? Has anyone dealt with these people before?

Sorry noodles - missed the part about you not wanting to buy privately. Blue is a popular colour so I bet you'll find something perfect soon enough.

If you happen to go to Dream Machines check out the WILD orange Cerb for me.
Now that is one mad mota! Think I might get noticed in that one

It is indeed alcantara/suade. My new Tuscan has it in prussian blue on the door cards and roof. Looks rather good I think. My car is GTS Blue Pearl btw - looks like I got it just in time before you snaffled it on me!

There's no picture in their advert, however I think it's the same car you can find in the Pistonheads classifieds.

In my opinion this is the most outrageous Tuscan colour scheme I've ever seen (it must have been specced by an owner with extremely good taste ) - go on treat yourself

If it is the same car then I found this picture of it taken back in April 2000 (I think it's probably had a polish since then):
