Fairytale Ending!

[thegreengoblet]

In 2000 I was lucky enough to be in a position to purchase a new cerbera 4.5 LWT

Sadly I only owned it for 8 months before it had to go to make way for a house purchase Since then I've got married, had 2 children, had 2 extentions to the house, a Fiesta , an MR2 Roadster, and a Jaguar S-type.

I thought the memories of the Cerbera would fade over time - but I was wrong. 6 years on and I still dream of owning another - some day - maybe when the kids have left home.

Then just the other day, whilst eating my lunch and looking through the Cerbera Classifieds there she was! My Cerbera! (Spec'd to my original requirements - except for the 18" Spider alloys which look better than the 18" alloys I originally had) And even better still was that she'd shed £25k since I sold her One day of sucking up to the wife , a trip to Fernhurst TVR, and a phone call to the bank later, and I collect her on Friday

So a BIG shout to you all - I'm glad to be back in the elite club

Thanks for all your comments guys (Simon... ).

2 owners in between... the guy I sold it to and another. She's covered 37,800 miles - I sold her with around 7,800 on the clock. She's in near mint inside and not too bad on the outside. A few bad touch-ups here and there (Rosso is a pain to touch up). Will probably get a few bits resprayed next year (funds permiting of course!).

Yeah been very pleased with Fernhurst. Mind you, I haven't got the car yet! Graham is the sales manager and a very nice chap indeed. He shut up the workshop doors and entertained my 2 1/2 year old (with my wife and baby watching I might add) whilst I had a 15 minute test drive They even moved my RAV4 into the shade and gave my dog a drink of water! (We were away on a camping holiday)

Yeah it's the Rosso LWT. Gold badges, tinted windows, tinted side indicator lenses, red sub fitted between the back seats (TVR even provided a piece of leather to match the rest of the interior ), ally dash and handbrake, She's just how I left her (except for the Alloys).

As you can probably tell, I'm very excited indeed!
