Does anyone know this Cerbera?

[BuzzBillsberry]

For me the best looking Cerb ever... Is it a body kit or just a home grown we beasty?

I think that is an LS converted one. Various othe body mods too.

[Pursyluv]

There is a thread dedicated to this car on PH, may have been started by the owner, don't know who it was though, so no real help!!

[Jhonno]

Reminds me of an Audi TT..

Thought it looked familiar- a mate of mine who has rather more 'extravagant' visual taste in cars than myself posted a link to an Ebay ad for that car onto my Facebook, back in April last year:-

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/331834088354

Plenty more info on the car in the ad.

Not my cup of tea visually in the slightest (the huge wheels make it look rather 'cartoony' to my eyes), but each to their own

I assume I'm not contravening any posting rules posting an old Ebay ad? If so, mods feel free to delete.

Not a Cerbera. Wrong engine, wrong body.

It is just a modern take on the classic cerb.

I really like it.

Or an Audi TT

I seem to remember this making around 30k.I agree without an AJP or speedsix in particular its lost some of its TVRness . But as a standalone on its own merits it looks very purposeful and I like it.

[Mr Cerbera]

Brilliant personal project.

Love it

Its like you typed the words for me

[RFC1]

Hideous. In my own opinion of course!

[Cerberaherts]

I don't like the wheels. I don't like the the bodykit. I don't like the front splitter. I don't like the engine. I don't like the colour. Apart from that I think it's fab!

[Ahbefive]

I like it, not the oversize kahn wheels though.

[aide]

I'd like to see what it drives like.

I saw this car in Dorset a few years ago. I can tell you that Simon's bodywork mods have been done to a very high standard, as far as I can tell. He invested a lot in the car, including suspension geometry changes to take advantage of the greater track.

It may not be to everyone's tastes, but I couldn't fault the quality of his work

Boring....Why do some people always have the need to repeat the same negative comments everytime it appears on this forum? I no longer have the car, it was sold with all the moulds to a fellow member earlier in the year, in the flesh it was a hell of a car but that's my opinion! The only thing I would agree was that the wheels were too big, if I would repeat the project again I would have used compomotive mo6 wheels or similar. Some of you need to get off your high horses, everyone has their own opinion but unfortunately the haters have put me off coming on here and I don't think I'm alone, I've modified cars from the age of 17 and I've always done everything myself, I enjoy cars full stop but some of you really need to get out more often, face facts TVR's are at a price now where they're affordable for all types of car enthusiasts.

Wonder where it is now?

It sold on eBay recently..

I've no problem at all with the bodywork and wider track, or the LS engine for that matter- it's just the 20" cart wheels that spoil it for me.

Although personally I think even 18" wheels look too big on a Cerbera so that's hardly surprising...

But it looks like it's all been done to a very high standard and it would be a boring world if we all liked the same thing.
