I have made a very difficult decision, and have decided to put the Cerbie up for sale...in the process of putting the ad together and should be in the classifieds later today or tomorrow.

Those of you who know the car and me will know that I have spent a considerable amount of money, (understatement of the year!),and made it a really sorted motor, with just about all the major mods available, and lots of the not so major mods...(too many bits to list here - the ad will be comprehensive!), plus I do not plan on giving the car away! hehe

I will still be fortunate enough to be still in TVR ownership, but not a Cerbera, but will still lurk around this forum! wink

You've said this before Paddy.

Get rid of your Beemer and the Tuscan instead.

Need Beemer as a family motor mate, and need to release money tied up in Cerbera!

Tis an interesting question though. Both the tuscan and the Cerb and you choose to get rid of the Cerb, yet it must be the equal of the tuscan in performance.

Why'd you choose Cerb to get rid of.

The Tuscan will be on the road for a little over half the value of the Cerb. Need to release money in the Cerb to help buy the EX out!

Sorry to hear that. Pretty much a decision of the head then.

yes Besides, the Tuscan, although being a completely different beast to the Cerbera, should be a reasonable match performance wise. Engine had a rebuild by TVR to Tuscan S specification (I assume this is same/similar to RR spec??) and being a Redrose, brakes/suspension should be pretty reasonable too.

Its a nice colour for the car, won't show the chips. I used to have a BMW that colour, and hardly ever needed to clean it.

Hi Paddy

Sorry the Cerbie has to go - but I do know a man with some £££'s who is looking for one.

Drop me a line with the details if you get a chance.

See you soon

Paddy,

Best of luck with the sale. The advert is spot on in it's description of the car and the list of mods is very impressive, and those who have seen the car can vouch for its condition.

Any serious prosepctive Cerb owner need look no futher if they are after a Cerb that is well and truely sorted.

Jules.
