Just down the road from me. If you're looking for somewhere a bit closer than X Works - Kenneth Brown in Hillington has looked after mine for 15 years now. Great guy. www.kbmengineering.co.uk

Took the Cerbera to a local car event and parked it next to a 488, it still stole the show.

I don’t, but then I’ve only ever driven it at night once!
(It’s a summer car, and the summer days are long here).

Yeah I know Kenny. When I first got the car he checked out the engine, traced some oil leaks, ‘like the Exxon Valdez’ in his immortal words, sorted most of these, did valve clearances, set suspension geo for which he is well known, and offered some timely reassurance that the car was basically sound.
Have you been to any of the newly reconstituted WoS TVRCC meets?

Didn't know it had started up again. Definitely pop in when the car comes out of hibernation.

I don't have a problem with mine
The binnacle stops any of that? Mind you I have red led lights in mine



Long exposure on lights when going around a corner looks weird...

Also 35K miles in 2011 smile a bit different now...

To be fair the dash lights on a Cerbera are brighter than the headlights...

Despite being a scouser, you’ve gone up in my estimation. Didn’t realise you were a fellow TVR man!

Ha! Technically I'm not either. I sold my Cerbera a couple of years ago now after several engine rebuilds nearly bankrupted me. Still lust after another and would jump at the chance to either own another Cerbera or maybe one of the later models. Also, grew up in Lancashire and currently live in Kent. boxedin

Original lights (big single, not those fancy little ones) and those phillips brighter headlight bulbs and I don't find it an issue. You're not going to speed around in the dark anyway.


What is poor is normal stop/tail bulbs and the smoked real light clusters. I'm running uprated LED bulbs in the rear after I realised how poor they were with the normal bulbs.

Best ever is replace the interior lights with the cool white led ones, you can actually see when you open the doors...
