Its near Burnham, I could have fish and chips and an ice cream by the seaide. Plus a play on the 2p machines, I love those.

Is this one familiar to anyone? It certainly looks spot on, is my preferred option of a V8 and the colours beautiful.

Silly question, but is age largely irrelevant on Cerberas now? I was looking at a sage green speed six that was two years newer - but condition must count for far more, surely?

Exciting times...

Buy on condition, not on age/mileage as there is plenty that can go wrong on the Cerb... biggrin

That ad does tick a lot of the boxes (clutch, 12k service, outriggers, etc...). Check the receipts and check the quality of the workmanship.

I see they have 3 separate Cerbs for sale. Got to be worth a look and spend time looking at all 3!

They do, yes. The 4.5 is way out of budget though, and I really don't understand the anthracite wheels with a light body colour, but I seemed to be in the minority over quite liking the sage green...!

Ahhh, a brother!

Mine's R234 VLR

Looks like it might have a bit of a tide mark on the carpet in the drivers footwell which is not un-common, might smell a bit like a wet dog. Just something to be aware of if you are planning on it living outdoors as it's an indication that there's a leak path.

Depends on how long they've had it up for sale of course but it maybe worth trying with a cheeky offer.

I've been looking for a 4.5 - that green one has been for sale since Christmas, so it could be worth an offer.... It looks like a nice car but me and green have a poor history, mostly involving more green, ie: trees, so I havent followed it up.

You're not the only one who likes Sage Green - I think it looks great...

I painted my Tuscan Challenge car in Sage Green, ignoring all the people who told me it was unlucky and labelling them extreme mentalists.

wrote it off first time out in a spectacular fireball....just saying...

I thought it was Chianti at first look also. Deffo Technoviolet though.
