Did no one else spot the article in Autocar last week suggesting buying a Cerbera is the best solution for a mid-life-crisis (MLC)? Some of the quotes about the Cerb in comparison to other cars, specifically a new porsche, are great. Perhaps it was just gents of a certain age (like myself) who read it laugh

Can't find a link on their web site so here are a few quotes:

The reader wanted 'baby seat practicality, a credible badge and whopping performance.'

After the reader dismissed £80k for a new 911 because it had a 'dodgy MLC image' laugh and a Monaro because 'it's more maxed Calibra than credible supercar'...James Rupert writes……

'Ultimately I could think of only one car that really fitted the bill. It’s uncompromising, and certainly mad……… So if he won't have a 911 then it absolutely has to be the polar opposite of the world’s most sensible supercar; a TVR Cerbera.’

‘Even during the better years valuing Blackpool’s finest has been nothing more than a guesstinate of what someone might pay if they were feeling generous.’

‘What a way to postpone that MLC and give you enough change from £80k to pay the running costs.’

MLC...... of course it is hehe That's exactly what Mrs C said when I bought it. However I haven't started using 'Just for Men' and wearing yellow shirts yet.

Well I have to admit that I bought my first Cerbera when I was 41, I suppose that's roughly midlife! But you see I bought it then because I'd always wanted one and only then could I afford one, and other circumstances lined up the right way.

Nothing to do with mid life crisis.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.






Honest.
