Screens

[Chris Smith]

Sorry - the search engine isn't working at the moment and, also, I wanted some recent experience. Am thinking about entering the Cerb fraternity (from the Chimaera one) and have seen a quite nice car with some delamination in one corner of the screen. Are the screens readily available (there was a shortage of Chim ones at one point but they seem to be plentiful again now). Thanks, in advance.

Hey Chris .. Mine has suffered the same fate but since it is not leaking, I am not bothered about it. How bad is it ?

If you are looking for a Cerb, Make sure you touch base with Smash. He is thinking of selling and I know the car and it is an excellent example and very much pampered by the previous owner (smash has not had it that long)

Yep, got a new screen a while ago supplied and fitted with no problems. It was through RAC Windscreens but think they got it from David Gerald TVR. Only thing is there are a couple of different types of screen (different width bandings top and bottom) depending on age, so if you get the car and go ahead with replacing the screen just make sure they order up the correct type.

Thanks for the feedback. Neil - the only issue with Smash's car is that I still have my Chim and am looking to part-ex, either with a dealer or a private owner that wants one. Plus there is the 'should I or shouldn't I?' debate going on in my head still. I know everyone in this forum will say 'yes' but I am trying to be more pragmatic, despite my heart also telling me to just get on and buy one whilst I have the chance!
