when buying a cerb 4.2,4.5,
firstly what questions may you ask on the phone before you decide to view car
asuming all goes well on the phone what would you look for on the car hot or cold
hopefully this week or next if insurance company pull there finger out i will be finacialy in a position to buy one, looking at 97/98
thanks daz
i think my answer to this would be cheek the fuel lines after my last disaster

dont forget the yellow paint i know this may sound stupid but me and my dad have come to see that the brighter colour gets alot more good looks than the darker ones its like we have just got rid of the dark blue chim and gone up to the yellow cerb a hell of a lot more looks

AP racing brakes
They all have AP Racing brakes. The early ones say "AP Racing" on the calipers; the later ones say "TVR" but they're still AP Racing calipers.

Most desirable mods are uprated suspension, bigger wheels and front and rear light upgrades.
