I am looking into the possibility of getting an early Cerbera in the new year, but I'm not sure if it will fit in my garage !

Does anyone have the dimensions of a Cerbera so I can check ?

I have previously had an S3 and BMW 328 convertible in the garage and I know a Griff fits as well, but am I right in thinking the Cerbera is quite a bit longer ?

Cheers

Paul

I'm expecting to have to riggle out of the car once it's in the garage, but I can live with that.

So, it sounds like it should fit - just the news I was hoping for !

Now am I being silly looking at the earlier 4.2's ?

I will have about £17.5k to spend and would be comfortable spending £1k a year in maintainance. Is Cerbera ownership possible based upon this kind of budget ?

Thanks for all the help so far.

I was hoping that if I bought an early one that most of the 'usual' problems would have been sorted by now. I would only ever go to a specialist for servicing as I believe you not only get more for your money, but you actually get a better service (from my experience).

I got bitten by the bug when I had my S3 and am prepared (hoping) for it to happen again. Extra optional costs like those you've listed would be on top of the £1k a year.

Can I ask what the £2k engine cost was?

Thanks

Paul
