ah well, mine has been more reliable than the TT.

Oh i'm not bothered to be honest, just forwarding on the link. There's some stinkers in there though

[tvrfan007]

Someone got subbed out in life by a dildo judging by the article's content.

[tejr]

Bit of an odd list which inclues the likes of the M6, Jag XJ220 and then includes the G-wizz, and tata nano!

Slow day at the office for the writer I guess, needed to come up with something fast no doubt

[DuncanM]

This has angered me quite a bit! I'd like to know the author of this article .

Fuming that anyone who says they like cars can give an opinion like that on one of the all time great British cars!

Written by a prick, i wouldn't lose any sleep over it.

TVR Cerbera

Ah, TVR. No list of motoring misery would be complete without one of Blackpool’s fatal attractions cropping up somewhere. The Cerbera looked like a dangerously ill-conceived dildo, and while it briefly laid claim to being the fastest production car in the world, it seldom worked for long enough for anyone to find out. Which made up for the absence of any recognisable safety features.

Worth saving the actual text so it can be re-posted when a Cerb owners has a pop at a Griff or Chimp owner.


'Dangerously ill-conceived dildo' Has to be quote of the year. In fairness probably a more accurate description of the bitter gaylord who penned the scrawlings but I can't wait to see the ferocity of the owners of these 'dildos'.

How long before someone who doesn't buy the magazine claims they are going to stop buying it?

[DonkeyApple]

Listings 5 and 7 seem to allude to the authour having a possible mental health issue. Quite startling comments of profound hatred. Possibly a Coomunist, or maybe a Communard.

[Mr Cerbera]

I'll never steal that rag again !

C'mon Guys, chill out. In terms of reliabilty, build quality etc etc it is bound to end up at the bottom of the table. There are only (about)1000 people in the world who actually went and shelled out there hard earned spondooleys to buy one, and I'm proud, and mad enough, to be one of them. As we all know the Cerbera is a 'heart' car, not a 'cold statistic' head car. They are a gorgeous, exciting, infuriating, piece of motoring history, and we all love them

[C3BER]

i guess i will read this in 5 years time at the dentist. :-)

How dare you - such inaccuracy!

'There are only (about)1000 people in the world who actually went and shelled out there hard earned spondooleys to buy one'

It was double that, well nearly, about 1942 to 1950. I believe there only around 400 mad men left with balls big enough to own one and strength to drive the beast.
After all it is the is a multi-headed hound (usually three-headed) which guards the gates of hell.
Not a car that is ever going to appeal to a limp wristed journalist

[robbri]

Everything in that article confirms why i have TVR, perhaps the person who wrote it knows he will get a reaction off TVR enthusiasts and owners take it with a pinch of salt.

[gruffalo]

Well, I for one will never buy that magazine again..................or to be more accurate I will never start buying that magazine in the first place.

And they didn't like my Vectra diesel either.

Come to think of it nor do I.
