The TVR Tuscan was a front engine, rear wheel drive sports car built by TVR from 1967 to 1971 in the company's Blackpool, England factory. It was the second car developed by TVR during the Martin Lilley era of the automotive firm.
The car was made available in both a V8 and a V6 format, with a total of 174 cars built between the two available engine formats.
Relaunched in 1999 evolving from the Speed 6 Concept car. Powered by a 4L Straight 6 making 390 BHP the ligtweight Tuscan can do 0-60 in 4 seconds and achieve a Top Speed of 190 MPH, giving it supercar speed but only costing less than £50,000.
The Tuscan first appeared in Series 1 Episode 1 as the S version used to beat a speed camera which it did at a speed of 170 MPH
In Series 6 Episode 3 the new Tuscan 2 took on the Wiesmann MF3, Jeremy found it tricky but mentioned how his wife loves it. He also tried to get a group of factory workers to get in and start the car. All failed. Not noticing the door button being under the wing mirror.
On the track it set a time of 1:24.8 easily defeating the Weismann.
