I hope that this had 'somethink' more to do with todays date, rather than knowledge on the part of the OP?

I think they shipped one. The same one some big wig involved with the film saw on a magazine and thought "That looks great!".

Which seems a much more reasonable theory.

I think they sent three but Mike Vernon is the man to ask he went with them from the factory.

I actually saw 'the Tuscan' at the factory a few years ago, complete with bullet holes. Seemed a proper Tuscan to me!

the car is alive and well and works and is real and actually belongs to an ex-factory lad at Blackppol.
He still has the rocket pods for it as well.

The one you see in the film still carries its UK reg plate too.
Good film too.

Apart from the chase scene where JT is being pursued by the Feds in oversized 4x4 yank tanks that are keeping up. As if

Yes!...remember thinking that too. Tossers !

There was a Fifth Gear (IIRC) episode where Tiff was taught how to do a 720 deg spin by one of the stuntmen in one of the Tuscans that was just about to be shipped out to do the filming for Swordfish.

Can't find it on Youtube though...

I believe that option on the paint is very popular in certain parts of "That London".
