Hello,

Thinking of taking the plunge and buying my dream car - Cerbera. - I've always wanted the green and tan leather combo and there is a car currently in Lancs, advertised on the site: FHZ 4200 starmist green. Just wondering if anyone could offer any insight into what to look for if I head over - and whether or not anyone knows the car? Should I be put off by 6 owners???

Any help would really appreciated....

I looked at this car a bit back. The colour put me off a bit, very dark green. The car itself has had new outriggers etc and has been looked after by themselves for the last few years. The garage themselves are probably one of the best around and can be trusted. How local are you?

Hi - thanks for your reply - I'm in Derbyshire so not a million miles away...

If it's the same car we are talking about I take it that you've been and bought it.

Absolutely gutted - just rang up and it was sold last night.

Back to the drawing board....

There are always plenty of Cerberas for sale and it sounds like you have a good budget so I don't think you will have a problem finding a good one. It might be worth starting a thread on here if anyone has one or knows of one for sale, better spending your money privately with an enthusiast than a car dealer.

This is my old car (09-12).

IT was in sorry condition when I let it go in 2012 but Raceproved sorted it out and sold it on.

As to being too dark green, i think the Starmist green is beautiful and the "right" colour for a Cerb, almost a metallic BRG. Biscuit leather with this exterior is a great combo imho.

I'd have bought it myself if I was in the financial postiion to do so, however no such luck!
