Hi Chaps,

Firstly many thanks for the good advice posted here which I have been looking through for what seems weeks now. Finally I am ready to take the plunge and buy myself a Cerbera, so, do any of you guys have knowledge of a known car that is up for sale right now?

Anticipating your questions I have a good budget for the right car and would appriciate any help..

Thanks

Tony

This is a very well known car as it has been owned by 3 enthusiasts who still post in the Cerbera forum. Age is almost irrelevent as condition is key with these cars and given the asking price of this one, you could spend some of the change in your budget on making it absolutely perfect if you wish and still have money left over.

Mine is for sale. It's going in for a 6k service and MOT on Tuesday, so will be completely sorted as of then.

There is an ad in the classifieds, which I can't link to from here as it's not allowed. Email me for more info

Good news, but bad news if you know what I mean, I know how you feel. Hope it's sold to someone who'll post on here and continue to take care of the beast?
