The Cerbera's engine went bang, a replacement has been sourced and will eventually go back in once all the engine bay has been tidied up.






In the meantime we needed transport for Classic Le Mans, so been a long term PH'er there really was only one choice.







Have only driven back from dealer and it's fantastic, reminds be of the Elise, few jobs to do to get it top notch already booked in with Eddie 4.2 for some dent doctoring.

Looks really nice matey - black is the best colour for them.

Welcome to the fold. MX5's are my go-to-cars when I need a cheap runabout.

Sorry to hear about the Cerb.

I knew a guy who bought one brand new. It was a special edition in BRG with Beige leather, a hard top and some bigger wheels with the spokes painted green. It looked great. I have never seen one for sale when I do check the classifieds.

Good choice!

Lots of fun aren't they! How was the drive to Le Mans?

Nice. My dad bought that exact model when new back in '97. Luckily for me he spent most of the time out of the country so I ended up using it more than he did. Which was nice.

Advertised for £2k gave £1500 for it in the end.

Classic Le Mans in 3 weeks can't wait, will take some careful packing to get everything in.

Crikey, they're that cheap? Off to browse classified ads.
Good bargaining too if there was some niggles on the car.

Never knew they made an RS - http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1786876.htm
Neither did I until AFTER I bought one! The one above was also on eBay recently at £3500 but he has now dropped it to £2999.

Also on eBay is a set of Recaro seats from an RS at £1000! £400-600 is nearer the mark I believe.
