Hi, iam gonna buy a cerb in the next few days and ive seen one i like with lots of history etc, i was wondering if ppl can give me a list of stuff to check, common faults etc

What kinda tool kit do you recommend i carry in the car, fuses? spanners? screwdrivers etc

Any other info you think might be helpful for a newbie will be appreciated

Cheers

Why the rush?

Get a good Indy to check it out. Also do a search, it will show up all the things you are looking for.

Do they? Mine didn't. Is it hidden in the car somewhere?

don't think they did, i've had 3 cerbs none with a toolkit?

although i see someone is 'making there own' and sticking a TVR sticker logo and calling it a official TVR kit on ebay. I could be wrong though as these may come with later cars.

I looked at several MY00/01 cars and they had a toolkit, (although sometimes incomplete)perhaps it was just the later cars, sorry for the confusion

I haven't got a photo to hand, but I noticed "nervy" has one shown on his ad.

>> Edited to say that, it doesn't consist of much, pliers, Allen keys, bulbs & some gloves to keep your hands warm whilst you're waiting for the RAC to arrive

By tool kit did you mean a bottle of self inflating tyre foam?
