Does anybody know more about this Cerb?

I have seen this link on the German TVR-Forum.
I think it´s a little bit strange with this Dashboard.
For me it looks very deformed.

Cheers
Alex

At least someone knows exactly how to spoil a classic and totally original dash.

One word "Hideous"

Absolutely horrendous.
I`d imagine that if you removed the dash covering you`d find the word "Kelloggs".
Plus, that handbrake lever looks like its going to be right annoying when reaching for the gears.

Very odd... Looking at the angles, you'd need satellite imagery to tell you what the speedo & rev counter are doing.

And go go gadget stretch arms to get to the passenger window buttons or fog light.

Only just noticed that biggrin

I'd say more impossible than annoying.

Looks s--te, theres something funny about that Cerb looking at the number plate it is an N Reg if it is the original plate and it has a 4.5 badge, if it is 4.5, Cerbs did not come out till R reg "I think" and if you look at the surround at the bottom or the rear windscreen it looks thick black plastic which was on the early Cerbs and again I think they change that to carbon fibre on R reg Cerbs, seems like a bit of a mongral to me

I saw a new left hand drive Cerb on Monday being put together that was way nicer than that one.

It has taken all the fun and quality out of the car that one. Looks... Well, yes - a very cheap euro box...

I would suspect that the dashboard looks as terrible as it does owing to be a converted RHD car.
Looks shocking though frown

Those bits of wood & nails to make that dashboard box, didn't put themselves together.
