Driving through Leeds last night in my Smart(!) and saw this orange thing behind me - TVR Cerbera with the latest 4 x headlights. I held back to let him get past (one way system in Leeds) and then followed him on my way out of town. Hmmm looked mean, chrome orange, black 18" spyder wheels and noisy. Best bit was the noise in fact, my fiance and I were drooling - 4.5 V8 was popping away on the over run as the driver burbled along. We'd been talking of replacing the S2000 with a new Elise....however my lady now wants another muscle car (lived in LA until recently and drove around in her tricked up 400bhp Chevy Nova) and I agree with her. You can't beat a TVR for on road presence, it really was awe inspiring too see and hear, and reminded me why people (me included) want these things

Drove a Chimera 4.0 - 2 years ago and decided on the S2000, since then had sort of gone off TVR's. To be honest it had alot to do with the negative stuff I read on here.....those two minutes following the Cerbera made me realise why I've always wanted a TVR tho' keep the faith!!!!

Re: S2000 and Cerbera - hows the handling compare - is the Cerbera as tail happy (tho' controllable) as the S' - Will be replacing it next Feb and the TVR is looking more and more promising
