Last Cerb to leave Factory

[stas]

I was at the factory yesterday to collect
my car, and there having a photo shoot, was the
last cerb to go out. Black/black interior,with
black dails, nice. Sad to see the end of an era.

Sad news.

However, I hope your car is sorted and ready to create some weather!

[kojak]

I agree. Hope your car is now ok.

It won't be the last, another is going back there soon... (Not mine thankfully)

Nothing major though, just cosmetics.

Correct, it's over.

Such a shame...

The blowed Typhon will be out though... that'll shake the world surely - if they get it right... so you can all put your cerberas down as deposit and take out a 80k?!? loan on top.... hehe

Its missing two cylinders and one bank...

[shnozz]

the cerbera is an icon. And still the fastest TVR ever produced to date.

And I'm simply missing a bank to be able to afford buy one!

Sure I read something somewhere recently (Sprint? EVO?) that suggested otherwise...

Emissions controls killing it I think, unless they have started to look at modifying it since Nikolai arrived.

Rumours of a re-worked head on the V8 with 4 valves per cylinder and a new GT replacement to clothe it are abound - I heard it directly from a dealer.

Production of AJPV8 engines has stopped - the contracts were binned. And there is no alternative news to authenticate the rumours of its development.
Period. Straight from the horses mouth

I prefer this news

Joked with my dealer the other day about dropping my AJP8 4.5 into the Sagaris when that comes!! I like the Sagaris (that's why I ordered one) but am a bit worried about the drop in peak power and the even bigger drop in torque across the board!!

Asked for that too at MPH04, with Danielle in ear-shot, although if I'd have put a deposit on the table it might have had more weight. If more of us do this then hopefully the news that people want V8s in their TVR will get to those at the top.

Before donning a flame-proof jackets, this is not an anti-SP6 comment.
