Anyone familiar with this one.
Discussion
I've been trying to convince a mate of mine to get a cerb for a while now, and after a few outings in mine he has started looking for one. Anyhow he has found this one on autotrader and asked me to go look at it with him. Just wondered if anyone knew anything of its history?

I just dont get this - its either the colour or its because its too cheap - and folk are suspicious. At this rate I reckon i'll mothball it and bring it out in a few years - maybe then it'll be classed as a barn find and be worth thousands

From the perspective of a buyer I think a lot of people find the original light and wheel combo a little dated so tend ot try and get one with a headlight convertion and spiders. I don't think the colour is a big issue as Cerbs carry off any colour well.
Yours is very keenly prices so I am suprised you have had no intrest
car checks out ok, no accident damage and no hpi nasties, seen car driven it and seen paper work also spoken to all the service people in the book.. think cheap puts off people but there are bargains to be had.. get this for 8k then engine rebuild if req a sound motor !! little tappet noisy but hey not seen a cheaper cerb and the paint / int is one of best i seen. priv plate as well lights were done about 6/7 yrs ago

think you got 8500 cos ad states offers around 9k i would have offered at least 8501 .50p has it gone yet...
No it hasn't gone yet but please don't insult me with an offer like that. I really am reaching the stage where I would rather store it than give it away. Its had a 5 grand engine rebuild for goodness sake!friend of mine needs to replace cams on his 4.2 cerb its a 98 done 37k what should he be aware of and is it just cam and buckets what sort of costings and any one out there that knows of who can do the job apart from tvr garages etc may be a good mec with oodles of knowledge.. ta chaps
Not sure where the 'rebuild mileage' came came from?
There are very few AJP's that have required rebuilds unless cranks have failed (ok...this is an early 4.2 so worth checking if its at risk) or owners have actually chosen a 'refresh'...(do a search...)
If its been looked after, and on face value it looks very clean, take a look...

just been reading thru and i travelled to test drive the cerbera you are asking about.. went like stink and sound was very loud... very good car all round.. was going to buy but missed out.. should have left deposit there and then.. called back day later and its gone!! it was one of those situations where you ask yourself why a cheap price? time i did checks next day it sold. i even paid out for hpi etc all was fine so some lucky so and so has a great car!! gutted or what... still looking.

There are loads of AJPs being re-built all the time. Just talk to the guys who do the work. People tend not to come on here and brag about engine probs. Plenty of cars are sold on with engine probs pending ie I once bought one !

They will have massively increased odds of pending rebuild as the miles and yrs pile on.
