Hello !
Gary, don't worry, I was just joking. I'll take care of it though, I'm not joking about that!
NuddyRap, thanks for your input and advices. I'm getting a bit worried though. I was expecting to dirty myself just sitting in the car, but it may be even scarier than I was expecting... Still very very excited ebout the day when I'll get the car though...

Honestly it's an easy car to drive. The controls are a bit heavy, but purposeful; the gear change feels like moving a rifle bolt. You'll realise that there's no need to be intimidated by it after driving it for a few minutes. Gary, don't worry, I was just joking. I'll take care of it though, I'm not joking about that!

Due to the long throttle travel and firm level of resistance you need to mean it in order to release any savagery, it doesn't just happen. The last 40mm of throttle is where things get extra angry but even at that point it's all about the method of application.
If you squeeze the power on in one progressive movement you won't see much wheel spin, it won't pull as instantly hard but it'll still fly. It'll feel nice, quick, relatively safe.
If you rapidly progress to full throttle (Hoof it), you'll break traction very easily and not do much more than hang on for the ride. It'll pull hard.
You'll love it, even driving at only 50kph. You will mess yourself every time you go to drive it, and itch when your journey ends and you stop driving it because you just want to get back in it again.
For maximum effect in terms of both sound and speed, try to feed it 98RON petrol. 97 is ok too, but I certainly notice a difference.

Well after 16.5 years of owner ship my beloved Cerb has finally gone to a new owner 
I had some fantastic and so fantastic times with her but I loved every single minute of it, I waved 
to her on Friday with a tear in my eye but I know she is going to a good home which is what I wanted and she will be looked after, she has gone to sunnier climates in Bulgaria so she will be a rare beasty there and get loads of admiring looks, I hope the owner gets half as much enjoyment out of her as I did, he will be putting a thread on here when he gets in two weeks time on the 28th May so say hello to him, now I am off to finish off my T350
this car followed me all around Europe once, couldnt keep up with mine and Johnos far superior Griffth 500's I had some fantastic and so fantastic times with her but I loved every single minute of it, I waved to her on Friday with a tear in my eye but I know she is going to a good home which is what I wanted and she will be looked after, she has gone to sunnier climates in Bulgaria so she will be a rare beasty there and get loads of admiring looks, I hope the owner gets half as much enjoyment out of her as I did, he will be putting a thread on here when he gets in two weeks time on the 28th May so say hello to him, now I am off to finish off my T350 
Its a stonking car with an equally heavy right footed owner, hopefully the new owner will keep that right foot heavily planted on the gas as it should be.billynobrakes said:

How you finding the T350 in comparison handling/performance etc is yours a 3.6?

They are two totally different cars, T350 like a little roller skate, Cerb was blooming fast and great on long journeys, handling the T350 is more planted and faster through the twisties, I love them both but the T350 just has the edge for me,I put a Powers 4.5 the T350 as I did not like the 3.6 needs a lot or revving to get it going 4.5 loads more torque and more drivable but that is IMHO Gassing Station | Cerbera | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
