Ok enough doom and gloom about the Factory. Let’s look for something positive in these difficult times.

Apologies if this has been done before, but I can't remember it recently.

We know how special our Cerbies are, so of the current crop of Cerb owners how long have you had yours....and how long do you think your going to keep it?

1. BossCerbera - 4.5 8 years 8 months, Boss 1 year 8 months. Sell???? Hell will freeze over first.
2. jfk1958 4.2 over 7 years 40k miles will only sell when by Back eventually gives up and walking stick arrives.
3. BCA - 6 years =72months +... 60k miles+... the next person it gets sold to is ME, and I should think thats a while off yet. No intention of selling it.
4.Deano_ratpac 72 months + on 3rd Cerbera 1st:4.2, 2nd: 4.5 3rd: 4.5 RedRose, i just keep coming back! No chance of selling.
5. Mike_e - 71 months, 40k miles, no way I'm selling this BRITISH classic supercar.
6. Alistair H. - 70 Months. - Nothing out there to replace it.

12. carl_w - 35 months

Ive had mine for 18 months and i have no plans to sell, but until last week i also had an xjr which went in part exchange for a new car for my daughter, so now my second car is a mini metro and im still trying to come to terms with
i cannot drive that, but the wife loves it (pink fluffy seat covers to boot)
having the cerb is a wonderful experience but if i ever have to drive that other thing she's going (not sure which, the cerb, the wife or the daughter)cry
