Cerb Vehicle Inspection

[HarleyPilot]

Guys,

I am seriously looking to buy my first Cerb. It is located in London (just enquired as to the location) I have been trying to get in touch with Rob Ingleby but unsuccessfully. Does anyone know his whereabouts or situation? Failing this does anyone have any suggestions regarding a pre-purchase inspection.

Thanks in advance

Contact one of the nearest tvr specialists and see if they will do inspections for you. Most of the ones I know will, but you might need to negotiate how it is done as some will not do mobile ones.

Also, find out the details of the garage that last serviced it and chat to them. That will also help.

Rob has an email address and a mobile - both which shoul be on his site. When I used him in the past, it usually took a few days for hm to respond, but if you dropped a reminder he would usually get back very quickly.

That was a few years ago though as I've not used him recently,

Which one is it (PM if you like)?

I know a few people buying Cerbs currently and a few have been to look at less than acceptable examples.

Reminds me, if you are after a good one, I can put you in touch with someone from my region who is looking to sell his.

He has kept it very well, but is selling it due to lack of use.

It has had some of the usual Cerb issues, but nothing beyond that.

Enjoy the thrill of buying your Cerb.

If you like what you see,
bring it to Fernhurst, Racing Green, Str8six etc.
to make an inspection.
If the seller is honest he will support it, but you will have to pay.
It is worth it.

But make an appointment with the workshops, as it takes its time and they are all very busy.

I learned, if a car is not nice and tidy in the cabin, usually the rest is disappointing as well.

Have fun and good luck!

Guys

Again great information from everyone and very much appreciated - thank you. I have dropped Rob another line and hope he picks it up and reply's soon. Getting great guidance out here in the North Sea from my mentor and TVR guru - Chillie Man. Great forum and hope everything comes together so that I can (officially ) join the TVR "Band of Brothers"

Looking forward to it with great anticipation albeit nervous of very possibly loosing the remainder of my points - damn! just remembered - got none to loose
