Got it! The first Nebula Blue Tuscan S off the production line! Unfortunately, due to Sh*te weather in Wales this week-end the FULL NEBULA paint experience cannot be shared here tonite - but when the sun did (occaisionally) shine through all that cloud - imagine.... a LARGE handful of Red, Blue and Green Glitter thrown all over it and there you have it..... NEBULA BLUE! Say Hello

Wave Goodbye



A BIG thanx to Lisa and Danielle at the factory for the tour and help with the final spec:
Nebula Blue Tuscan S, Painted front splitter TVR wheel centres, Portland and Oxford Blue interior with Oxford Dash Top, Gaiters, Steering Wheel, Lamonta, and Stitching. Silver Switches, Blondemoments' Matching Nail-Varnish Grey Carpets piped Portland.
Nebula Blue Seat-Backs arriving as soon as the factory finish them, and Blue Carbon Can Co. Cans to go on @1000 miles Have covered 350 miles this week-end in South Wales and my first impression against my 2 year old Tuscan? SOooooo Much better! The engine immediately feels smoother and more 'refined' and the suspension set-up... SOooooo much better - no tramlining!

Congrats Gerry

Can't wait for mine now.

I have to agree that Lisa, who did the factory tour for me, was ever so nice & helpful.

Beautiful, are you now a 2 Tuscan man ? If so please can I look after one of them for you ? I have a large, dehumified, heated, secure garage that's entirely empty

Very nice indeed! Saw one in this colour at Castle this weekend as well, and it's certainly going to get noticed!!

What do you think about the DAB aerial on the boot? It looks like they've just started fitting these as standard, as my car (just delivered to Castle on Thursday) has one fitted too.

I think I will get a DAB ariel too as my reception is sh*te.

My Golf was Jazz Blue but it was too subtle unless the sun was intense.

PS. The colour coded splitter looks excellent!

Wasn't sure about the aerial on the boot at first, but now kinda like it! The radio reception is absolutely fantastic! I upgraded from the standard fitment to a Pioneer DEH-P5500MP which handles cd's MP3 and WMA. Just got to work it all out now!

Thanks everyone for your nice comments!

Such a pity there has to be someone out there who wants to "Pi*s on someone's fireworks"

When I specced the car, Danielle and Lisa were very excited as this was the first order for a Tuscan S in Nebula Blue. When I spoke to Danielle last week she said that they had done another one since! The pupose of my post was to share my excitement of having my new car and show everyone a new colour with fellow enthusiasts - NOT to claim any glory!
