Hiya, thanks for the link - very useful.

Yes, that was a pic of me briefly but I swapped for a pic of the Cerbera instead!

Will post some more pics after the weekend!

Thanks!!

Thanks Pole!

I'm literally bursting with excitment about the car. I have a few bits coming from the UK for it, anti roll bar bushes & ball joints & am looking forward to getting my hands dirty & working on it myself (under the watchful eye of my technician other half)!!

Have to roads got better over there? I haven't been for 20 years but they used to be very very slippery and rough.

If they are then there will be some fab hoons to be had when you get her fully yp and running.

Have you ever driven a Cerb before?

Congratulations on the Cerb.

I went to Cyprus in the summer & loved it despite the 40 degree heat. Whereabouts are you?

Hey Gruffalo, Smooth Smith,

We have new highways now but a lot of the back roads are still pants! Can't wait to hoon around!

This is my frst Cerb, it's a fiesty little begger being a factory RR so I will treat it with respect till I know what I'm doing!! Me & the other half have a sports car garage here though so I do drive 430's, lambo's etc, etc.

We are not far from Agia Napa & the garage is in Nicosia so a nice blast down the highway twice a day!!

mental is good bounce

Sounds like you have some nice toys to play with, Cerb has more soul than a fast Fiat or Audi, well in my opinion any way. Enjoy, it is hard not to and what a place to enjoy it in as well, jealous?

Oh yes.

Yes take it easy until you're use to it although it's sounds as though you're use to powerful cars. Running a sports car garage sounds an ideal job!!

We stayed in Protaras but toured the island. Much prefer your temperatures at the moment to ours!

Don't forget the photo's. Despite having a Tuscan, I love Cerbs.

A Cerb must be as rare as rocking horse poo out there?

A big thanks to all of you for such a warm welcome to the world of cerbs and yes Fubar, rare as rocking horse poo over here! As far as I know (& almost all sports & supercars in Cyprus are my customers) it's the only cerb here!

Davidd - totally!! Black is under the raidar fast, it's probably giving me more torque too claphehe
