Welcome.

I think that may have been one of the cars I looked at when I was buying mine.

I actually rang back about it and it was sold.

That colour is really nice for a Cerb (it's just a pity they aren't as fast as the yellow ones).

If you give BLUETHUNDER a lift in your new car, you might get both biggrin

Seriously though, I think the handling is quite planted and progressive and the cerb doesn't deserve its widowmaker reputation, but, like all the best things in life you have to get to know it, give it some respect, buy it things occasionally and always warm it up fully before using the full length of travel, and it will reward you thumbup

You should join the TVRCC - they will have a Kent group that meets up regularly and also arranges runs out etc.
Looking in SPRINT magazine they have two groups:

Mid and South Kent - contact ro@tvrcc-mid-southkent.co.uk
Meet April - Oct 4th Sunday lunchtime Three Tuns Inn CT3 1LN

SE London / NW Kent - contact ro@tvrcc-selnwk.co.uk
Meet 1st Sunday lunchtime The Woodman YN14 6BU
4th Monday evening The Manor Farm Barn DA13 9PU

As previous posters have mentioned, condition, condition condition (to rip off a certain C4 property show!).
However, in my humble opinion £18K for a 12 year old Cerb is on the high side, and the colour is a bit "marmite"..... not my cuppa 't.

I'm sure that we could all put out receipts that show "20K spent on the car" - most of that in servicing alone for a car that age...

BUT - I don't know the car, good 'uns and bad 'uns, tek yr own choice etc (disclaimer disclaimer).
