Not considered one before, but theres a cerbera in at work, and i'm really liking the look of it..

How do they hold their money, which are the ones to go for? Budget of around 20k really,,, and one i can sit in confortably (6ft2)

Thanks

Don't do it!

Just look at them and don't touch!

Thats the way forward!



Sitting in a Cerbera is HORRIBLE! like looking out of a letterbox!



£20k gets alot of Tuscan though....

Think it would have to be a tuscan, soft top... Are they unreliable too, there's a tvr specialist next door to my work so i'm going to pop and see them

Ginge !

yes tuscans are unreliable and also share the same letterbox veiwing adn the turning circle is that of a boat, flood the plugs on short distances, get ripped of for repairs all the time, rear screen catchs snap, its a fucking pain in the arse opening the bonnet,,, as you have to remove it and then chip the corners , twitchy to drive like you wouldnt belive BUT,,,,, you wont find a easier way to get attention than when you are driving about in a tuscan,, makes you feel good about yourself,,,,,, well that is till your trying to start it again and it wont fire up and you have to try and get them last 2 plugs out to clean which are under the fucking scuttle panel,,,, not a good look outside pizza express on a sunday afternoon

Max, do a search of aftermaths of TVR accidents! They crumple like crisp packets!! Love the T350's and sagaris but would never own one because I value my life!

my dad always said they sell TVRs with a pair of brass handles, so WHEN you crash they can just screw the handles on and lower you into your grave lol

LOL, just been to the TVR place, and theyve got a one owner tuscan in the corner, 00X, estoril blue,,, at 14k...

If you really want one and have £20k to spend, spend less than half of that on a decent Chimaera for a laugh, and the rest on something else.

maxest

iTrader: (1)

Doesnt have to be 20k,, but i do want a drop head so thats the chimaera out,, got the 500 for rainy days LOL

Edit- sorry was thinking cerbera, dont like the look of chimaera's at all

Mike C

iTrader: (1)

You do or don't, lol?

rs500? have i missed something?!

maxest

iTrader: (1)

No not keen on them, look dated..

maxest

iTrader: (1)

LOL, yes ive got an RS500, 3 owner, 57k, black, standard! Just not taken any pics

Lambchop

iTrader: (1)

Nice! Well if its anything like your other cossies i bet it's a belter!


Also from 1st post abotu fitting comfortably. The tvr owner/founder was 6ft 4 i think it was and all car were built to take his size comfortably iirc.

maxest

iTrader: (1)

Ive had cleaner cossy's, its just a nice usable example!

And yes your correct regarding the founder,, tvr specialist told me that!

Do you want me to take some for you Max??

If it were me i'd stretch that bit further and get a M3 CSL......

maxest

iTrader: (1)

LOL Be good to try a couple of your splits on, see how they work on a black car..

M3 doesnt interest me pete,, looking at sagaris now even though i want a drop head!

Staffi

iTrader: (1)

Anytime Max you know that...

Now Sagaris i do like.....what price range are they sitting at??

my mate has come over from germany today and bought a cerbera - found with the help of this guy http://www.findasportscar.co.uk/

£20k gets you a very decent cerbera, probably a red rose lightweight if that appeals

love the cerbera, considered selling a couple of my cars and getting one a while back but after speaking to various ppl and looking around on t'internet it just seemed a pointless waste of money as it'd spent more time in bits than my cossie!

Mate works in a garage across the road from me, they spend more time in the garage getting fixed than on the road

35k pete,, at that money id be looking at other vehicles,, but i am tempted for a tuscan,, see what turns up

Staffi

iTrader: (1)

But is this with the later/newer models too??

I've always fancied one too i must admit, yes i know early cars had reliability problems but as said, didn't realise this carried forward to every make...
