Just been watching an old Clarkson video that I have had for years an never watched before. In it JC drives and talks about finding the best car ever.

He discusses the Griff and Cerb in good terms and in the end there is a standing race over a straight mile between an Aston Martin Vantage, Caterham, Cerb, Porche 911 Turbo, Lotus Esperit V8 and a Dodge Viper.

Cerb won it hands down much to his surprise

His final conclusion was inevitably a Ferrari but they wouldnt take part in the 'Race'

Thought you Cerb owners may be interested!! smokin

This vid was shown on a loop at the motorshow when they launched the SP12.
Also available on YouTube. John Ravenscroft was the driver.

1996 I think this came out. I was 17 and I knew then I wanted to own a TVR and thankfully it's happened, I'm on my 3rd!!!

I think there was some talk to why this was on an earlier thread.I think Gaffer mentioned something of a falling out between PW and JC.
