Never used them, however, last Sunday was hooning up that great road (A287/6 from Chichester to Guildford - a real pleasure, that one), and stopped at Fernhurt. My mate and I parked up the S, looking tired and grubby after a weekend of making progress through the countryside. The ridiculous noise drew one of the sales chaps outside, and so we asked if we could have a good old perve at the assorted TVRs.
Basically, the guys on duty (this was a beautiful Sunday too - I'm sure they would rather have been somewhere else) were great. Unlocked the cars, let us sit in them, and asked us back for a test drive any time. My mate is looking for a Chim - and these guys will now be his first port of call. Compares favourably to another main dealer who were far too snooty about the whole thing.
Good work chaps! Loving the Cerbera you had in there, too. One day soon...

If it was a geeky looking bloke with glasses then that was Simon 
...nice guy. Older guy would be Graham.
Fernhursts sold me my Griff and serviced it for 6 years until I sold it last year. Top firm. Nearly always let me out for a drive in something nice when popping in for a mooch, shame the loan cars are (were) Micras
Head mechanic Bryan is (was? guess he's still there) very knowledgable and very helpful.

I was up there on Sunday, took the Tuscan in for a power steering problem!
There's two geeky looking ones with Glasses, Drew and Simon (sorry guy's). Drew and Nick were on duty that day.
Heard that Ben was around earlier you'd have known if if it was him he's really OLD! and the zimmer frame is a bit of a give away!
Yep! Brian is still there but he's on oliday for a couple of weeks IIRC.
Hello you little lurkers
How's me mota BTW? (saves a phone call)

IIRC he promised me a cup of coffee...or something...! I'd completely forgotten
Btw:
Yep IIRC he defiantly promised you something... don't remember coffee coming into the equation though!
Defiantly promised? I think you're in there Roz, gawaan girl
Well I bought my 4.2 Cerb from them in June this year, and I must say they come highly recommended. Their sales technique is excellent, no pressure let me sit in the car on my own for a while, adjusted the pedals for me before a reasonable length test drive. They are obviously aware that its a niche market and people looking at Cerbs are mostly enthusiasts who have already done the research and the car will almost sell itself without a lot of flannel. The car came with a years warranty on engine gearbox and diff. I have had a few problems and the car has been back with them a couple of times, but I must say the after sales service has been excellent, they provided me with a loan car and they certainly were very accommodating, helpful and knowledgeable.
I would rate them very highly.
