What made you choose the particular cerbera you ended up buying over all the rest you saw?

Was it love at first sight, gut instinct or plain old research the condition?

Tested all 3 Cerbs before buying my Speed Six. It was a combination of condition, price, and being able to live with it on a daily basis. Colour had a big hand in it as well, especially the combination of exterior paint and interior trim colours. The one i got was the best condition I found for the price and having drove all 3, I personally prefered the speed six (this is my opinion, and not a mines better than yours jibe). try all, enjoy doing it, and make up your own mind.

The responsieness of the car compared to others I have driven. Some I sat in just felt lumpy and neglected, you could just hear a large bill coming down the road!

Also the colour . All the blue ones seemed pretty slow.....

A colleague had a Cerb at work, i had already decided i wanted a trevor and it was either a Tuscan or a Cerb 4.5

Drove his 4.5 which he was selling and immediately the love affair was spawned.... Trev tried to kill me by getting rather violently sideways in heavy traffic after i blipped it, so it was enough... the old phrase goes--treat em mean to keep em keen, well Trev treated me mean and boy am i keen.

So drove only 1 Cerb, thankfully i knew the owner and so far nothing has really gone wrong other than a dead battery.

Not the smartest way to choose a car....

Colour / Spec and dealer Rep.

Had a good idea on colours and my budget.

To be fair if dealer I used had a yellow / orange one at the time fro similar price I would own one of those instead of mine.

Basically with the stories and annual costs it was peace of mind I wanted....coupled with the right colour.

Cant complain toooo much
