Cerbera for sale: Advise Please. C18ERE

[Biggles1964]

Good evening, before anyone asks I'm not sure where the biggles tag came from (I'm not a pilot) lough have been seen flying around suffolk on four wheels!

I'm in Hintlesham

As for risks of buying at auction, it is an inherent risk but sometimes with the roll of the dice. I tend to do all mechanical work out my self, even tackled starter motor issues out on M6 which was fun. Just as well there isn't a swear box in the man cave!

Although of course, I'm hoping there isn't any nasty surprises lurking around the corner. As soon as I get previous keepers address I will try and contact for some information.

Managed to get it out for a quick blast today, it's good to have a proper sports car. No magic gizmos to control everything, reminds me of an elite I once owned. Even my partner was amazed that when I lifted the bonnet she was impressed that all there is, is an engine!

Any way I will keep you updated

Having my Cerbera for 5 months now, and 3 Chimaeras previously, my experience is that the Cerbera is more prone to electrical gremlins than the others, it having so many bespoke control boxes. That's my experience anyway.

Also, expect a few dropped jaws as you drive round, especially if it's decat!

How do you know whose hands it is in? Latest log book was October 21, so probably changed ownership then. It has only done another 8,000 miles in the 11 years since you sold it, so it has been in - not-used-very-often hands.
