Seems very cheap but looks the part? Anyone know anything about the car?

I don't know the car but it does look lovely for the money... If you want it Experian checking to ensure everything is hunky dory, give me a shout.

Nice looking standard car that looks like it hasn't been got at. Bloody cheap if it's as good as the picks sugest. Very depressing for us cerb owners at that price I have to say. Check out the chassis.

I am pretty sure that's my old Cerb, I owned it for a year around 2003 I think (sorry to be a little vague!) I can remember what I had done to it and a bit about its history. If you want more info pm me for my number.

That seems stupidly cheap! Does look great but i'd look very closely. I found one i looked at had a repair right in the door hinge area on the sill going underneath to the outrigger, could barely see it but had been crashed for sure. HPI check it also

I'm almost tempted to buy that one, then put it up for sale at £11k so people won't be out off by it being so cheap!!
The old addage is 'There is no such thing as a cheap Cerb', but get it checked, you could prove me wrong and grab a bargain.

I know why that car disappered so quick....


...it is because I brought it! biggrin

It is all clean and tidy and was a pricing mistake by the dealer.

Thanks for the welcome. This is my first TVR so it may be a bit of a learning curve!

All I'm going to say about how much I paided is "it was cheap".

I hope the Rovers don't sulk, one of them has to get me to work each day. I'm hoping that the experience of Rover ownership will help prepare me for the Cerbera. Least I have a decent tool kit.

I'm loving the Cerbera so far. Real pleasure to drive and its loud enough to wake the dead.

I'll be at the meet at Mercedes in September and it would be good to meet some fellow owners. If the weather is horrible I'll bring a rover insted!

Jimm218 I have checked my records and as posted earlier in this thread you have bought my old Cerb. The colour combination was very nice if I remember correctly it was Mendip blue with magnolia and prussian blue interior. It had afterburners and the RL7 wheels fitted when I bought it along with sports pipes. I sold it to Offord around 2003 to buy an Ultima.

Great to see she is still on the road, enjoy!

It is nice to know some of the history behinnd her. All those extra bits are still on her and the colour sounds right to me. She is still in lovely condition. I think there has been one more owner since yourself.

If you are at any of the meets do come and say hello. I'll try to keep it looking good!
