Well after 16.5 years of owner ship my beloved Cerb has finally gone to a new owner weeping I had some fantastic and so fantastic times with her but I loved every single minute of it, I waved byebye 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

Thanks for your kind replies and I know I can be a bit harsh at times with people but I have tried to help and point people in the right direction over the years and I will be lurking on here so I am not gone for good

I glad you bought her as you seem very genuine in your plans for her and that is exactly what I wanted and it has been my pleasure dealing with you

Just make sure you get the diff bush changed before you start to thrash her about and by the way she loves a good thrashing

Keep us up to date with the work you do

It will become acutely annoying long before there's any chance you could do any damage. And it is really not the first job you want to tackle on a Cerb - that would be an unpleasant baptism.
The existing diff bush is split right through and is causing the diff to bang about so will cause damage either the mounting, diff itself all even the half shafts, Julien trust me get it changed or there will be weeping specially if your going to put it on a rolling road then thrash her up a runway, the amount of pressure put on those components is massive and something will give if the diff bush is split and damaged ask Taylor TVR

ukkid35 see you in Zolder wink

Calm down, the car is booked for changing the bushings the day when I'll receive it. I will drive less than 15km with the old bushings smile

I'll take good car of it, it's a keeper!

Thanks, so called. I'll be careful with the right pedal. Even tvr owners consider those cars to be beasts... Frightening!

The only thing I'm worried about now is if my girlfriend will like it...

Just don,t want you to have to spend loads of money putting things right, in 1st gear it will clunk when you pull away you will hear it and feel it, then nice and smooth gear changes and ease on and off the clutch and it will be fine

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
