Teds Cerbera

[gazzab]

Didnt know Ted had bought a cerb until I saw it at the weekend. Wow - the cleanest one I have ever seen. Much better than a new one! I hope James Agger did him a great deal.

[kojak]

He kept that quiet didn't he. Does look good.

[GregE240]

Lovely colour. Same combo as the first one I ever drove.

[PetrolTed]

I'm hoping it was a good find. Low mileage yet used fairly regularly and appears well looked after from its condition and history. After hearing some of the horror stories $$$ I've got my fingers crossed that it'll be a good 'un.

[GregE240]

Hope so too mate. Good to see you on Saturday, BTW.

Welcome to the best club around Ted!
You will feel right at home in here, we have a broad and intelligent community of members, we hope you stay with us for the long run.

Oh btw, nearly forgot, but new owners MUST get the drinks in at the next big cerbera club meet.
And also you must go through the new Cerbera owner rituals, details will be available soon.

Do you know a good local supplier of goats?

[SXS]

They ran out after the last ritual...

Although, they've got a never-ending supply of chickens... what you think?

Saw a welsh cow available for hire too... we could probably drag her down...

Well is seems like a very similar find to mine. The only issue I have had with mine was a damaged cat, which didn't cause the car to break down, just took them a day to work out the problem. Other than water some how creeping in the drivers footwell nothing else has gone wrong and its been a joy! The best was this weekend when I whipped a T350 on a nice bit of empty dual carridge way! Just shows that the good old 4.5 really is a lot quicker than the speed 6 engine. Ask anyone, having 8 is better than 6!

Good Luck!!

Faster than a non-RR 3.6, maybe...

Really? whats the BHP on the RR then? and is it legit, i.e. we are meant to have 420!

[SXS]

The RR Tuscan is fast - very fast - sooooo fast - but it still looks like a razor with a 'byach ass'...
But I still want the pedal box from one!

Agreed

Brighton speed trials - at the end of the quarter, the 50k mile Cerb with very average power hit 109mph, where the Tuscan, with a very good start could only manage 104... If the Cerb hadnt bogged down, it would have been a bigger margin still.

A red rose Cerb or a chipped one would leave a bigger gap. Fantastic cars.

I was wondering when you were going to notice that Paddy.

[jmh99]

I've been done

When I purchased my Cerb last year, the dealer told me I had the only blue one in the country !

It's going to be a twin to mine as well!!...same colour blue and also got me self a set of Spiders on the way...

[davetherave1970]

Paddy,

Are you getting the 18" and are they four Tuscan fronts or two fronts and two rears? The rears have a larger offset and can make contact with the rear arches!
