Does anyone know anything about this Red Rose Cerbera that's popped up for sale, or the guy who owns it?

It's tickling my pickle in a big way but the number that's listed on the ad isn't recognised!

My thoughts precisely, I doubt I'll be seeing one for that price again (in one piece) and therefore am getting very angsty about it! scratchchin

I have 3 buttons and a curly wurly so mine's the winning bid so far biglaugh

Considering it is a Cat D, needs a respray and some interior cosmetics, price is about right IMO.

I wonder how recent the photo's are?
Looks a lot of leaves on those Trees etc.....
Looks nice though for the money.

I agree that Cat D status and rough finish here and there rules out being able to stick it in the garage and hope to sell it for bajillions years down the line, but if it's as per description with no hidden damage then what a machine to be able to own and drive for the money!

MoT history shows very little used since 2006. 7k miles in 11 years!

It also had no valid MoT from July 2014 to Sept 2016 so was off the road for a while more than once.

It's advertised on the classic and sports car site too, you might have better luck with the phone number.

It may be wrong on purpose to deter time wasters and 3rd party companies with 'buyers waiting' (my arse).

Try contacting the seller with an email of your interest.

Looks a very nice and useable Cerb.

Spiders with the original headlamps look soooooo right to me.

The seller has opted to use PhoneSafe. This helps protect the seller from unwanted calls. For pricing and further information see our PhoneSafe FAQ's.

I e-mailed the seller weeks ago to see if the Cerb was still for sale etc. using the link provided and never received a response back.

If the number doesn't work then maybe it's been set up incorrectly.

Agree the car is a good price if the chassis is sound and all the work has been carried out as stated as long as the CAT D doesn't put you off.... that's if you can get a message or response from the seller :/

Someone didn't prof read their advertisement

"It also had a small amount of "were" on the drivers seat bolster"

It was a Red Rose spec engine build not a Red Rose.

It is sold now.

Looks good value if the advertisement is accurate, however claiming 440bhp with 4.2 induction and no dyno chart to back it up does not inspire confidence.
