For anyone who hasn't seen this in the General TVR Section.

Just been to the highlands of scotland with Mrs WorAl, covered 880 miles in 4 days and without any hiccups.

Clutch master cylinder ran out of fluid, so had to top that up once but knew that was faulty before i set off.

See this thread for details, photos and videos (when i host them)

I just picked up my car from Aberdeen - it's the same car I sold 18 months ago and drove it back to Bedfordshire in one go - 550 miles with just two stops for petrol and a bit of grub.

That's a long way with the window open - now slightly deaf in my right ear.

So you have just bought back your old Cerbera? Thats fantastic! smile Cambs folk meet up on 3rd Thursday evening of each month at Buckden Marina just off the A1. Cerberas are not represented in huge numbers, regulars are just 'two'! So if you fancy a run over and a beer by the water....

Might see you there. Great to be back in the old girl again wink. Not sure I'd want to tackle the Aberdeen-Bedford route again in a hurry though..

Gold 4.5, although it seems to have spent more time in the garage getting fixed than me driving it recently.

And just to redress the national Cerbera Balance, I'm moving to Aberdeen on Friday! smile

We have just got back from a week in the Scottish borders, was very nice up there. Very glad I re-set the Nitrons from 5 off full hard to 15, stuck to the bumpy roads so much better wobble
We are from down in Surrey though so the trip mileage was over 1k, didn't see one single other TVR of any type on the trip in all those miles though, where is everyone?
