Pah! Spotted a red 355 with the 'plate J90MPH (the script making the J look like a '1'). Took great pleasure in cruising past in Y200MPH.

...and you want to go somewhere on a cold morning, but your doors won't open.

Nice numberplate though, Jeremy.

Looking at related threads & recalling an Evo speed run...it seems the random nature of a TVR speedo will show 200mph at any time.

Still miss my cerbie for raw grunt and frolicks - nothing like a sexy french biker bird leaning in your window saying ' what is it ???'

'A ck dear - my flies have broken'- (yeah I wish !!!)

Will always miss the cerbera but will buy one as soon as possible to keep in the garage next to the pony (maybe a T350C but it does not have the same knee shaking effect on me that the cerbera does)

As for the pony - approach a bend, downshift (lots of pops and bangs here too now with the tubisport pac) and flor it and round it goes.....no hassle...you could do that in the cerbie too but usually looking out the side windows rather than the windscreen...

I totally empathise with this. Despite everything, the Cerbera is monkeylatus nutorium incarnate.
