Any "Top tips"?

[swindorski46]

Ive just purchased a 97 4.2 with 38k on it (Hopefully taking delivery next week!), and was wondering if there was anything a new owner should know?

I've just sold my S2, which I'd owned for 3 years so am aware of the "TVRisms" I may well come across, but wondered if there was anything Cerb specific,(e.g In an S series you ALWAYS carry a spare throttle cable).

Thanks in anticipation.

Is this by any chance the Rosso Pearl one that I was talking to Gemini about on the phone tonight?

Wouldn't know, I wasn't party to that conversation!

Could well be though, I am in the NYTVRCC. It was from James Agger if that helps.

Do you know something I should?

Be very careful in the wet for the first time, cause it will bite back..........

Oh, he said he was going to mail you back and said we'd spoken, so thought you might have put 2+2 together. Perhaps he forgot - he sounds like he's getting a cold. Not important, and no I don't know anything you need to know, but if it's from Agger then it is the same one.

Enjoy it.

Only advice I'd give you is make sure your garage is wide enough to get the doors open once you get the car in. I put Ceejay's in mine and then couldn't get out of it 'cos of the length of the doors!

That'll be the one. My email is playing up at the moment so I haven't received anything for days.

I'll be (very) careful in the wet, I'll be (very) careful with the tyres, and I've already lined my garage walls with polysterene sheet, just in case!!

I use to always carry a spare relay for the fuel pump/injectors for the Chimp - suspect the Cerbera is similar - I need to check myself (bottom of passenger footwell). Other than that check oil and water every week - I know that advice is often given but with a Cerbera it is necessary. Enjoy, take it easy and be prepared for large crowds every time you park. What a car !! Always wear your shades, night or day.
