Weyhey,

After a three week holiday at Offord the Cerbera is back (they only had it for three weeks cos I was on holiday and have not had time to pick it up).

The diff was fine turned out to be a wheel bearing, it also had more work on the wipers (they really do work now), new door button, MOT, A/C rebuild, fixed a terrible oil leak.

The plan is to see how I get on with it for a week or so then decide if I'm going to keep it long term. I must admit though it was bleeding excellent driving it again after three weeks punting about in our saab (to be fair it is a very good car just a little dull).

did you buy the car from there then? what's the deal with it, did they do the work under warranty for you?

I wasn't going to post anything for fear of the jinx fairy, but my Cerb is back and working perfectly. Replacing the oil pressure gauge gave me an extra 10psi at idle as well, which was nice.

No they do the work I pay for it, a little annoying I've tried to talk them into doing it for nothing for me but will little success Still they are pretty reasonable.

I bought the car from a friend, Offord checked it out and found a few little niggles which they sorted before I took it home.

Sounds like a £1000 TVR bill.
