After 8 fantastic years of Cerbera ownership, meeting some truely lovely people (my favorite being AMAZON, sorry guys but she has taken me to Le Mans twice!) I have sold the Cerbera, she left yesterday evening.

Wasn't intended and happened so quickly but the buyer could see what he was getting and a deal was struck, I'm still in shock cry

My pride and joy of eight years has gone to a good home and the new owner will be along shortly as he is new to PH. I actually did the deal with a friend of the buyer who is a big TVR nut and have to say he was an absolute pleasure to do business with, a nice guy.

Don't know what I'm going to do now but will be in shock for several weeks especially now summer is coming. The reaction from my wife, kids, close friends and family is also of shock, they still think I'm joking.

Anyhow, I'm not going anywhere and will still be around this forum and until next time byebye

Cheers

cuckoos nest, cuckoos nest!

Dont worry, you will soon wake up from this nightmare and Cerbie will still be nestled in the garage.

SI-PEN,

I'm flying my 'TVR Racing' flag at half mast. 'tis a sad day! frown

It was a pleasure going to Le Mans with you and your mob last year, you are being missed already, and now this!

Take care and stay in touch.

Thanks for being so great to deal with and getting the paperwork sorted so quick!

Simon-
I'm in shock myself! Had great fun with all of you at Le Mans last year- and you had a lovely car. I'm sure you have your reasons for selling the Cerb but I really hope you don't regret it.
I've got a little one on it's way in August and I am probably going to have to part with either the Cerb or the Wedge but the thought of either going is causing sleepless nights! I think I'll just stick my head in the sand instead...

Btw, I can thoroughly recommend Wedge ownership...worth a thought.
All the best to you- hope to see you at some point, somewhere, over the summer,

Matt

p.s Boatbuoy (Ollie)- be good to catch up with you too!

Must have been heartbreaking :weaping: to see her go after 8 years, been nearly there once but pulled out at the last moment just could not bear to see her go,had her nearly 13 years now and just spent £4500 on her some with APM but looking at another car but finding it hard to make up my mind,

At least your Cerb has gone to a good home though

Cheers Guys & Nicky for your comments. I will still be around and hope to meet you all again soon at some point or another.

Captain! - good luck for August and congratulations, keep the Cerbera!!

Nicky - I'll take you up on that off as your passenger to a GT Cup race, I will be keeping in touch I promise.

Mickk - Haven't seen you for years mate, thought you had sold months ago but nice to know you are still around.

Olly - thanks for the flag gesture, enjoy Le Mans next month and have that midnight rev up again like last year!

Now, where did I put that Porsche owners club magazine? laugh
