Sorry for the delay chaps but don't get too excited, it's second hand!! A 2000-X in Pearlescent Rosso with full black leather. The previous owner has put Nitrons on it and I can honestly say the handling difference between this and other standard Tuscans I tried out was incredible. As requested, piccy attached (hopefully!)

They do make such a difference on early cars. I'm well chuffed with mine now.

How much are nitrons and what specific differences do they make the car. I am always concerned about winter driving in the tuscan so will this make a big enough difference.

The Nitrons are a grand for the shocks and springs. The shocks are much more compliant, whilst providing more controlled damping, making the car sit much better on the road rather than bouncing from bump to bump. Mine also used to feel a bit floaty at the front when conering at speed and this is now gone. I have done a before and after test down some country roads I know pretty well and I am comfortable going about 20 mph faster with the Nitrons on.
