everything. and nothing.

in the 'everything' category it was warm here tonite and driving home from the pub was lovely.

in the 'nothing' category, the indicators, wipers and high beam went out on the way home (meaning i had to drive in the near dark, with 2cms of clear screen and indicating like a BMW driver) and the oil pressure guage starting fluctuating a little bit. Got out, checked and topped up oil. The pressure fluctuations remain, indicators, wipers and high beam are fixed. on their own. by themselves.

genius.

I love my car so much it scares me sometimes .

Full throttle acceleration today in 2nd and 3rd round MK and there's really nothing quite like it.

Can't think what a state I'd be in if I had to sell it .

BTW I've had cars that I've been fond of but nothing that's got under my skin like the Cerbera.

If I had to sell I'd just buy a banger (relatively speaking) because I don't think I'll ever find (or be able to afford ) anything that'll top the TVR Cerbera 4.2 AJP8.

4.5 with a remap/ 4.5 Red Rose??

Come to similar conclusions that the latter is the only worthy successor atm!

Hope thats just the indication. Could also be the oil pressure spring????

Not sure about the SP6 but on the AJP they are changed every service. It's a very quick job and keeps the oil pressure in check.

Get it checked ASAP, you dont want to risk damage.
