This car has been in the classifieds for a while and as its very reasonably
priced i'm wondering why it hasn't sold. I was thinking of making the trip to
see it but if anyone has seen it and can save me the time/effort/money I would
be very greatful.

email me if it,s a pile of pooh

you could E mail the owner if you have any specific questions about the car. looks quite nice to me though. i'd go and have a look/drive of it if it takes your fancy, than see what you make of it. it is always a wise idea to drive as many examples as you can with Cerbera's as you can get some quite leggy, uncared for cars compared to others in your price range that are well looked after/maintained examples. history and appearance are also important things to look at when viewing cerbs.
hope this helps.
good luck!
FMC.

Thanks for that FMC
The bit that worried me most with this one was the scribbled out scrapyard
in the background. Spose I just need to go along and check it out.
Looked at one last w/end which looked mint and sounded great(but then I think they
all do) but the history was patchy so I walked.

i must say seems a suspect to cut the background out i was going to look at a car today but it seemed a bit strange having been resprayed from red to met green not a problem
but it has a green interior aswell now that seems a bit over the top as it would'nt have had a green one to start with or am i getting parnoid ???????

Yep, for the moment we're down to one car. Estate required next for growing family. We quite like the look/spec of Audi S6s although there don't seem many about so we'll have to see how likely it is that we can find one to match our budget.

Alpina will stay for the moment, we'll review that next year sometime.

Happy days

An RS4 wouldnt be much more than that what you would have got from Mr Agger (who I am sure cut you a good deal ;-) )

You know what a hard bargain he drives

Have looked at RS4s but they're all going to be 5-6 years old now and I'd rather have something younger. Also think a twin turbo'd car may not be the best solution for our domestic travelling. Normally aspirated V8 will be fine

I'm also thinking that an A6/S6 may be a better bet space wise.

Not so. The S4 and the Chimaera provided more balanced experiences.

The Cerbera provided very high highs, and some lows
