Hi fellow PH's, im toying with the idea of selling my TVR cerbera 4.2 and buying a bike engined kit car such as the westfield megablade/megabusa. I was just wondering if there was anyone in the Oxfordshire area that I could meet up with to chat about things and possibly take me out in their car? cheers,
Liam

Hi mate, my friend will be selling his Orange Megablade at the end of April. Unfortunately he is away in France atm, and wont return until then. I shall try and get hold of him if you are interested.

Only what I remember, its a Westfield Megablade in Orange. I think its 2003 registered. The engine is (obviously) from a Honda Fireblade, 900cc (I think) and has been dynojetted to 150bhp so it is stupidly fast. My friend has only covered not more than a few thousand miles at the most since he has owned it, and he was the owner from new. I think it could be as little as 1000 miles. Its in amazing condition and is garaged in a heated room. I will email him and try and get him to send some details.

Which one is your cerbera? send me the link

I know that my friend was interested in 4.5 cerberas, but I dont know if he still is. Im also pretty sure that the engines output exceeds 130 bhp. But unfortunately I cant tell you much more due to my friend being pretty much unavailable until he is back in the UK. Send me an email lukeicbanks@hotmail.com

I have just signed up so sorry if I'm a bit late to this party. If you are interested in a Westy megabusa please have a look at my profile. It's not for sale but I'm going to Silverstone on 3rd May to the Gold Track day. If you want a ride let me know.
