This is just a list call!

If you're on this forum and reading this post, leave a response with current car situation and your own personal condition!
Thought this would be a great way of seeing who's still buzzing and how many cerbie/ex owners still read this forum????!!!!???

I'll start, I'm here, dead cerbie (still), health-wise-not-too-bad (I've just re-joined me old sparring club), job wise - still chilling out.

I'm still here, Cerbie worked fine last time I took it out, health-wise OK I think, job-wise usual wind-in-the-hair seat-of-the-pants stuff.

Hi Ash, Well me and Mad Mark are still around and hopefully for a for a long time into the future too

The Cerb is going well, drives like a dream, looking forward to the summer for some more drives out, although it gets used quite a lot already.

Hi there

I'm on my first Cerbera (Chimaera and S2 before).

Currently suffering from glowing cats and knackered clutch slave cylinder but nothing I can't get sorted in the next couple of weeks

I'm quite well thanks and hoping to meet some of you at a meeting soon.

Hi Ash and everyone else .... I browse through PH every night, although don't always post. My Cerbs behaving itself, although she's not getting used at much as i'd like to lately.

Got lots of little fixes to do like cleaning my headlight reflectors and replacing lamps. Nothing urgent, just cosmetic stuff. Wanna get my rims refurbed and maybe give Chipsaway a call soon.

Hope to attend a few more meets and runs than I have been lately. Unfortunately, working a 6 day week doesn't leave me much time for myself. And most of my Sundays are spent trying to get my house in order. I dunno, work, work, work. No rest for the wicked i suppose.

I'm here

Moved from Chim to Cerb in November and it went straight in for a sort out and hasn't been seen since. Should be ready any day now and I can't wait as still have not driven the thing .. ever!

Personally, pretty healthy apart from a bit of man flu and being overweight. Work is also good, run my own small company so get to comit an unhealthy portion of the day to PH with little fear of being sacked, which is nice.

Not the first Pete is from up here and I'm an ex-owner now.

Is that Chris's car you bought?

Speedo.... drill a hole in the back or take off the metal ring and fix it yourself in an evening. It's usually the gears that pop out of place.

I've a feeling all cerberas will end up in this fine county of ours, especially the blue ones, or so it seems!
Hows life without the cerb, going Andy?

Not too bad. Don't really miss it, especially with all these expensive bills showing up on here over the past few weeks. Just bad luck for folks probably but kind of glad I've done the cerb thing and moved on whilst keeping my rose tinted specs intact.

What about yourself, nothing major??

Always here, Cerb rebushed diff wise and driving better than ever. Race season starts soon for me ( see www.classictouringcars.com ) and I'm hoping that I have some reliability this year. My business is completely donald ducked and my name is going to be in newspapers for the wrong reasons in the near future but never mind.

Andy,
Nothing to stop it from being used, a couple of electrical niggles such as doors & windows usual by all accounts. I've just had a pair of manifolds hand made in stainless, much better than the origonals, hopefully they should fit without too much hassle & should never crack in the usual spot!
All in all, enjoying the beast. Can't wait for some dry summer roads, like you mentioned, there's been some disaster stories on here recently.
