hello all,

i'm looking to buy one, but as i've never been in one, i was wondering if there is any cerb owner in the high peak area that i could come and have a peek at their car. just to see if i like it (which i'm sure i will) and more importantly if my little girl will like it, the wife liking it is less important.

thanks

Cant help you out as I down have a cerb, but you will like it! If you are mad on TVR's or a petrolhead, your first ride in a cerbie will be something you'll never forget!

See? Blue is common!

Methodwares, what you REALLY want, is a yellow one. Yes you do, admit it

my wife had a calibra that was blue with cream leather interior, just like 99% of the cerbs, just want something different and purple don't really do it for me. yellow would be cool, but i think the black leather would be a bit much and too damn hot, and nothing but black would look good inside a yellow... yellow is better than blue tho, not that i'm choosing sides.

...so the free one with expensive girl, don't think i could really go for that

Greg, Pauline et al yellow owners, I think this comment from someone new to cerberas & therefore unblinded by colours proves that yellow is the best colour after all and we may now put the subject to rest at last in the knowledge that everyone else is lying (particularly the blue buggers)

methodwares, Im sure there must be other interior colour combos other than black, just I havent seen any

Starmist green is the classiest colour in my very unbiased opinion .

Yellow and Blue are the two colours I didn't want !

Although any Cerbera in the flesh is stunning really .

No one can argue with that, surely?

But Halcyon Atlantis is best

don't know, don't know guys, all this over colors.

my point of view is yellow done right, black wheels, black interior, maybe tinted windows makes it look like something that shouldn't be street legal (get the thing on a track and keep it there). silver or grey, especially with black wheels, looks intimidating. black (or the dark charcoal), with black or silver wheels (not shiny chrome wheels) looks plain f'in brutal -- the 'do NOT f with me' look. the other colors make the car look like what it is, a truly beautiful piece of british engineering

a touch of purple inside looks good
