A friend of mine who has a dealership which sells across the used car spectrum phoned me up on Wednesday last to tell me that he had just purchased a 1998 4.2 Cerbera with 38,000 miles and a full service record - the last two services had not been done by a TVR specialist. It had just had a new back section on the exhaust and new suspension as well as having good so2's all round. I went down to his place to look it over and I have to say that it looked very good indeed.
I did not want to buy because I prefer ( I drive a Chimaera) the rag top TVR's. Anyway I was in his place today (Mon 14th)and it's been sold.
For..................
£14,500.!!!!!
He thinks it will be back with him for Christmas as the guy who bought it part exed a Range Rover and said he only wanted it because it looked fantastic and to "nip down to the local at weekends".
Place your orders please.

Hi all.
Since I started this thread I have had a closer look at the car I mentioned. It is a very clean example with only a few minor stone chips , the rest of the car , inside and out is very good indeed and it drives very well. I went with the guys from the garage to deliver the car to the new owner. I followed in a Mitsi evo 5 - the Cerbera destroyed the Evo across the board - now before some of you say so what , this Evo had had some serious work done on the engine in terms of BHP output. The guy driving the Evo could not believe it.
Nice one , and all for under £15,000 - by a dealer!!!

Hi all,
You are not going to believe this but the guy who purchased the 4.2 Cerbera last week has had enough as it " did not drive well during his trip from home to work" - 6 whole urban jungle miles in the rush , sorry crawl , hour! Guess what , a dealer from down south rushed up on the same day - today - and bought it. I will wait to see what price he puts on it.I suppose that's the end of the thread.
