It's Over #525228

After six years and 60,000+ miles, I've just watched my second Coupe head south on the M1.

As some of you may know, in the next few months I'll be getting a Cerbera - so expect a new level of paranoia and bullsh1t on another forum :).

But before I do I just want to say a big thanks to everyone I've bantered with on here, and met at various venues in the south, midlands and north. There are too many names to mention but you all know who you are. You're a great bunch and help make this forum a great place to be.

The new buyer is aware of fccuk and hopefully will identify himself on here, join up and maybe bring the car along to a meet or two. I've also pointed him in the direction of Powerfiat (big up Rog ).

Anyway, I'll try to pop back from time to time to see what's going on - but if not, keep enjoying these wonderful cars and this forum.

Au revoir

I am the proud owner of the new car. I enjoyed every minute of the drive down the M1. Lovely car and well looked after. Still think i'll get the colour of the lovely alloy wheels back to the original silver. Just like things to be standard.
Simon was very helpfull and seams like a nice bloke. I wish him all the best with the TVR.... Cerb's are nice so although the Coupe has gone you at least have some enjoyable motoring coming up when you find the right one to buy.

Foxy.

Well done on the sale Roly!!

Now go and negotiate your way to buying the Cerb........a certain silver one has your name written all over it..

Good work Roly - go get that Cerb! They really are something special.

As I'm sure you know, you're ideally situated to use Joolz at trackcar solutions for your Cerbera needs - as Jules says, there's some silver thing on PH at the moment (which is probably in fair condition) that may be worth a look ;\) \:D

Although bear in mind that they are much quicker in yellow \:D
