That'd be me! First spot in the Cerb.

You might have noticed me sitting oddly far forward - today was the first time out with the whole family on board i.e. wife, 2 year old daughter, 3 month old daughter!

I only live about half a mile from where we saw each other. It always makes my day to see another Tiv on the road, so glad we crossed paths.

Looked like you had a car-full - dog in the back?

It did look like you had a full crew on board- andyes - that was a dog in the back, he's ok up to about 110 -then he starts to float upwards a little!.
your car did look (& sound) mint. I've yet to get on the spotted thread- let me know where you live & 'll keep driving past!!
PS- We're going to the Oulton park gold cup tomorrow, if anyone else want to try spot me!!

Hah, I hope you've got him tethered down!

Your Tam looked very tidy too. Whereabouts are you based? I don't get out in the Cerb as much as I'd like at the moment, but I usually make the monthly club meets near Knutsford. Perhaps I'll see you there at some point?

I had the Gold Cup meet in my diary, but we had a scheduling conflict so couldn't make it work in the end. I've seen some of the photos on Facebook - looked like a good turnout!

I'm in sunny Urmston. I've yet to make the monthly meeting myself- something invariably gets in the way. The Tam is strictly a weekend indulgence when its not raining. The dog- he's a total petrol head- usually lying dormant on the back shelf unless we crack on a bit, then he likes to lean into the bends; I think its because as a puppy, he once fell down the back of my seat under heavy braking into a corner!

Back in the day (pre parenthood) when the cerb was launched- I had a 390SE as a daily drive- which subsequently required replacement with a family car, and I just couldn't afford a cerb to replace it as a practical alternative.

Having a kid killed any chance of using the Tuscan, hence the Cerb! It was a bit cramped 4-up though due to child seats etc. so I don't think we're going to see much use from it as a family for another 12-18 months yet when the eldest will be able to go in loose behind the driver's seat, and the youngest in a proper upright child seat rather than a baby seat, which will only fit in the front.
