I've just bought and drove home a 97 4.2 cerbera in Ferarri racing red with light grey leather. 44000 miles and full christopher niel service history. Wow what a car I have just driven it down from Bradford on a wet m606 m62 m6 and it handled like a dream and what a noise, its got sports exhaust and new 18inch spyders with 235's on the front and 255's on the back(all new toyo's).I can pick the 16 inch alloys and new tyres he took off after xmas, the same goes for the standard exhaust.
I am absolutely chuffed to bits I just did not want to shut the garage door.

I will be taking loads of pics tomorrow it was too dark when I got back, i'm equally impressed with the interior. Light grey leather with red carpets to match the exterior and huge red speakers.A giant one between the rear seats two big ones on the panel behind the back seats and two in the doors. I just wish I could find the off button, I just want to listen to that V8.

Well done. They really are something special. All the praise gets a bit og getting used to. Some bloke asked me if he could take pictures of it yesterday to show his little girl who keeps pointing at it whenever she sees it and 2 kids came oit with the 'nice car mate' comments today. I tell them that they obviously have good taste which puts a smile on their face! Probably future owners.

Did you sell the Saab in the end then or speak nicely to your bank manager?

There's cerbera owners worldwide cringeing that someone who stands like *that* out of choice has bought Blackpool's finest creation. Expect residuals to take a nosedive any time now ..
