Lovely blue Cerbera "R* MCH" on the A299 Thanet Way passed me this morning around 8:15am heading towards Margate/Ramsgate/Sandwich direction.

I was in my tin top so you wouldn't have noticed me at all!

That car was for sale at Walldonway a few months back, so Luc would be able to tell you who it was.

Very nice car, had a good blast in it and it persuaded me that a Cerbera is the way forward

Hi Rob,

I do like the Cerbera, funny how you grow to like a model as previously I thought it was a bit too long and grand tourer. I like the fact that it will seat 4 so there is no reason to part with it when the sprogs arrive!

My personal favourite is the T350, what a car that is but alas is too new and expensive for my budget, perhaps when they reach the age of my S

I'd always loved the Cerbera, I recall seeing the S at a motor show, but it wasn't until years later I knew it was actually a TVR.

However when the Cerbera was released in the golden age of old-Top Gear with the surrounding media attention and it thrashing all the other super cars - it became one of the entries in my top five list - and the only one I'm likely to achieve (all being well tomorrow I will have achieved it!)

The fact it'll fit the kids in is quite useful too, the only problem now is what next, as unless a new TVR GT is released I'd have to prostitute myself to another marque

PS Your new handle doesn't quote properly, the brackets confuse the parsing!!

I have a wife who can't understand why I buy 'old' cars and thinks I should get one of the newer TVRs.

I keep telling her that apart from the Cerb and the Griff, they all remind me of hot hatches from drug dealer neighbourhoods.

A very nice Cerbie you have there ....and what's that in the background, looks a bit Cobra-ish?

Tis indeed, I find if you take a photo from a very long way back it hides all the stone chips.

A Cerbie and a Cobra ....I'm envious!
