Today's car of the day is Kyosho's 2001 TVR Tuscan S.

A beautiful replica from Kyosho. This one comes from their line of British sports cars, though TVR has produced enough cars over the years that they should be able to warrant their own series. Let's hope that eventually happens!

Even though there have been numerous tweaks to the Tuscan's chassis and suspension, the overall size and appearance of the variants remain virtually identical apart from minor aerodynamic aids to the S model in the form of an undertray in the front and a small boot-lid spoiler on the rear.

In October 2005 the "Mk 2" version of the Tuscan was introduced, though in reality this was just a minor facelift. The modifications were restricted to cosmetic changes to the front and rear lights, the dashboard, and the spoilers on the S model plus some minor changes to the chassis to improve the handling. At the same time, a new variant a full soft top was introduced alongside the original targa version.

TVR has been on my list of favorite car manufacturers since Test Drive 5. I went from 'that's an ugly car' to 'that's an awesome car' with just one test drive!

That's a really nice model :P

There's a shortage of TVR models in this scale. Apart from this one and Matchbox's version, I don't think there are any more.
