As with all TVRs, it is function that defines form. Every inch of the car has been meticulously thought-through to add to its practicality and performance, as well as to its presentation. The convertible roof is quick and easy to turn down, and its carefully considered roof-down aerodynamics ensure that buffering and noise are deliberately diverted, avoiding any unwanted compromises to performance or pleasure.

Its four-litre straight six engine launches the 1,100 kg Tuscan S convertible to 60 mph from stationary in under four seconds. And with its extremely stiff race-derived chassis, carefully honed suspension and handling set-ups and exceptional composure, the Tuscan convertible is a pleasurable and fantastically balanced driving experience, even with a break-neck take-off and at breathtaking speeds.
