Just wonderin what is the best reaction you have had with your Cerb, not talking about the usual stuff like people taking photos, asking you to rev it, the waving and the stares
Mine was taking my nephews teenage girlfriend for a spin round the block (cos she thought it looked "MINT", at the first corner, she changed her mind and did'nt like it. at the second, she wanted to get out. at the third, she burst into tears, then back home safe and sound, she got out of the car shaking and sobbing.
She does'nt like me any more, and will never get in the car no matter how many times i ask, with a wry grin
I'm sure everyone has experiences that when thought about bring a smile to your face, so share them
Oh and by the way, i had both hands on the steering wheel lol

mine was taking the builder who had redone our house out for a spin. he reckoned his Lexus was quick- but discovered the real meaning of the word when I floored it in 1st at 20 through 2nd 3rd 4th and into 5th hitting the redline in every gear. he was hanging onto the door handle panicking. Later that day we negotiated the final account and I got a great deal-i dont reckon he could think straight! Cerbs-you gotta love em!

I love it when people shout at me to rev the car, then when I do get grins and cheers!

Best reaction was when a girl I know said 'God I just want to have sex on your car right now! Sadly she wasn't serious, but I approve of the emotion!

I took my brother out down some lanes one morning, I was giving it the red liner and harsh braking for the tight bends, all i remember is coming to a T junction and him saying "SICK"! I said "NOT IN CAR" and he was! It was like something out of the excorsist!

From a couple of mates I took for a spin:
"Your car is too hectic for me man" - after he got out.
"My heart is beating all crazy" - in car after a 2nd gear acceleration to 7k.
Mate in new convertible peugeot I followed to the shops:
"I thought my car was cool but then I looked in the mirror and saw that thing"
Really old lady in the petrol station:
"What a beautiful car, and it sounds fantastic". Not your usual fan

the best reaction to ours or should i say the funniest 2 reactions to our would have to be when we was at back home we was at a little b&b that had garages,we was puttin the three cars in a sagaris a tamora and a cerb (ours) we made the guys jumped about 5 fooot when my dad stalled it and when he started it up it popped as loud as you could imagine,but the bad thin was the roof nearly collapsed we had no end of bits and pieces on the top of the car after the roof was so close to falling down!!!
and another god reaction was when we wasgoin up a llittle street near the new big tescos we pulled up at the lights and a guy was walking over staring at the car so my dad revved the bollox off the car and made the poor guy drop his shopping ( my dads foot accidently slipped on to the pedal

Do you think you could perhaps use the spelling and grammar checker sonny?



It would make reading your posts a lot easier.

Was that in your old motor Dean?? I wish I had that old exhaust system still!

Took my brother out in the Cerb last month and his words as we punched through 150 units were something like, "do we have a flight plan sorted yet". I have to admit it was a bit much on wiggly dual carriage way, god I love my motor..

I have another one that everyone should try
when your at a set of traffic lights and someone walks behind your car (young girls are best) rev the beast as they get between the exhaust pipes (i find a little blip of the throttle works best), i've had em near landing on the bonnet of the car behind
usually end up being called a f***in t**t or something similar but its worth it
it saves them shaving their legs for a week or two

Floored it in 1st gear in the town centre the other night. There "just happened to be" a group of 18-20-y-o girls standing near the back of the car. I could just about make out the screaming above the exhaust note....

UKbob will be along in a minute....if you want a proper reaction, rev the car up near passing dogs (4 legged variety, not some 'ho' from Essex ).

Talk about irate owners Whats their problem?


But yes, the timed backfire as you pass some lassy on the pavement is a classic

Took my two godsons out last time I was back. Kept flooring it after each sleeping policeman. The elder one said calmly " Can't you drive this car slowly ?"
The younger one said, and I quote "TVR's Rock ! This is better than the rides at ..." somewhere-I-don't know.

I'm not mean enough to scare folk walking behind the car at traffic lights, although I nearly clipped a bloke who thought it funny to walk across the road in front of me when I was accelerating, needless to say I didn't take my foot off the accelerator. Don't you love it when people speed up, but try not to run

My friend refuses to go in the cerb with MOH, as she says whats the point in doing xxx miles an hour who can see you?
