Hello all.

Does anyone know of this car/are there any previous owners from here?

It does look rather clean doesn't it.

Wasn't that Tur8o's car - the one which he sold last year advertised for £8k due to needing outriggers? I had my eye on that but it sold in a very short space of time. It was otherwise clearly a very well sorted and cared for car if it's the one I think it is.

I don't think it is... I remember that car because I fell in love with it too, but I believe it was Chianti Starmist with 17" RL7s. Although I am happy to be corrected.

Rob you've alluded to going back to a Cerb on a number of occasions....what's the story here?

Don't like the Tuscan/miss the V8??

I like you sold a Cerbera, but bought a Tam, 2 years on i've not had the urge to go back.......yet

Hi Bob, are you well? It is a difficult decision but I feel my mind is made up. The Tuscan is great - reasonably well made, faster than my old 4.2 Cerbera, sounds great and the Speed Six engine is astounding. But the Cerbera has a certain magic about it; that engine is irreplaceable and the lines are as perfect as anything this side of an E-Type.

Hi Rob, i'm ok thanks, it's difficult to argue with what you say about the Cerb, i guess i'm blighted by the sheer number and cost of issues i had to resolve with mine, that said i love the Tam, not the fastest, but certainly the best sounding TVR i've heard, handles better than the Cerb too.

To be honest one of each is the answer..............one day
