Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1Original post

Kris, Went down this route with my Cerbera 4.5. Local OPC Arlington (Northampton), bascially wouldn't touch it. So I tried HROwen as they have a TVR dealership in their group. Sales guy attempted to find a Cerbera in his Glasses guide, until I suggested he could call their TVR franchise. Price they came back with was a joke, 4K less that what TMS gave me for it (Non SOR).

POST 2Original post

Kris Why did you decide to sell the 4.5? I'm thinking of upgrading from Grif to Cerbie 4.5 but have concerns over running costs

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I had a Chimaera 450 for 14 mths and then got the Cerbera Speed Six which I have had for 18 mths. Both great cars, especially the Cerbera but now I fancy a bit of a change hence the 993/996 thoughts. >> Edited by kris wood on Monday 11th March 15:02

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I am considering swapping my Cerbera for a 993 Turbo or 996 Carrera 4. What kind of trade in would you generally get from a Porsche dealers for a TVR? Has anyone here done this? Thanks Kris
