You were all correct.
Test drive and its now mine.
I'll post some pics Saturday.
It's had a huge amount of work done by the previous owner. I have a short list of stuff I want to do but otherwise I'm delighted at the condition.

I have my Tuscan convertible for the roof off bit.

Merry Christmas smile

ps. bounce

Hi so called. Proper car there. I'm the last owner so if you've got any questions etc please give me a shout. She has been superb in my ownership and I hope you like the work list that has been completed. There is probably a lot more I didn't document!!

Enjoy the air con in this weather.

Looks like a sorted, loved example!
She's a stunner.

Too bad you can't enjoy her the upcoming weeks.

Hi Steve, I was with Ian this afternoon and he said you had seen her on Ph.
Yes, very impressed with your work list.
I'm a very happy man.

Thanks for the offer of advice, what with Ian and yourself in the background I should be fine.

Cheers,
Tony.

Regarding the 5 week trip. I'm going in my Tuscan smile but it also involves Australia and India. (I don't drive in India) wink

Very impressed when the PO contributes to a new purchase thread. Shows total confidence in the car.

Hi Steve, yes, I have a lot of confidence in Ian. He's been looking after my cars for 10 years now.
I only had a short test drive but it felt so good it was enough.
First big run will be a trip to Germany in August smile

I know that car. Always though the dark wheels suited the colour.

the guy that looks after my Tuscan keeps pointing at the Cerbera that I have in mind and saying "MANS CAR" and then at my Tuscan and saying "Hmmmmmm"
Haha, brilliant. Welcome, looks great.

Owned a Mk 2 4.5 for a year, yes very fast, but no roof off driving, very expensive if you are a mechanical numpty and the engine/exhaust note is not a patch on the S6, strange thing is I still lust after another one, Aides RR mainly!!
I'm a mechanical numpty and I don't find it too bad to keep it alive through Str8Six and the Speed 6 is nowhere near as good as the AJP, in sound or anything else.....

Congrats on the new purchase. Roll on 5 weeks.....!

Day 6 of owning a Cerbera......day 3 of a 5 week business trip.
Back home the engines coming out for a rebuild and some chassis treatment.

I've lost count of the Cerbera videos on Youtube.
Wheeler Dealer was interesting to watch.




Already driving me crazy. moan
