Would be interesting to know the VIN numbers of both. I assume they rolled off the production line in tandem?

the red one seems pretty damn cheap. Looks like it needs some Nitrons (so add a grand) but even then it is £1K or more below its bottom private price?
The green one seems a little steep but I guess he is hopeing for sensible offers. Even so I think the starting price is probably a little bit optimistic? I do like the sage gree though. Stunning in the flesh.

And was the one test driven by ted when new, there's a link to his write up in the advert. I've been in touch with the guy but he can't take a trade in.

Why dont you just sell your current car? You've been after a cerb for a while?

Yes agree about the sage green - nice and understated but the colour suits the shape if that makes sense. Just needs some spiders on there really ...

As for the discrepancy in the price - it does seem a bit wide, especially as the more expensive one has the higher mileage. Maybe the red one is a forced sale ... still looks a nice car though.

Are Nitrons the weapon of choice then for upgrading the Cerb suspension - probably the most costly then too if that's the case.

That green tho' ...

The red one was at Peninsula on a SOR basis for about 12 months. I test drove it and I know Bomber Denton did too.

I think it was about 12/18 months ago and it was up for about £22k.

How much are they up for now? (I'm too lazy to check the classifieds)

Rosso Pearl, with stone chips = complete respray if the paint has faded, as you wont be able to get a match...

I saw a sage green Cerb at TVR Power, and it did look nice. Just been RR'd with act induction. A true 420 bhp anyone???
