You've got no chance of getting yourself built properly in there! :D

I'll be super powerful and muscular.

But I'll only manage one rep before I collapse in a heap and be out of action for six weeks!

I am actually looking at one of these right now.

Can you rip all the crappy wiring and replace?? I can't imagine they're massively complicated wiring wise...?

The wiring loom is zip tied to the chassis under the body, it would require a fair amount of work to get at it all, and it won't just pull through.

Because they are epic, most of the niggles have been identified and have preventative measures in place now thanks to specialists such as TVR Power.

Those fixes aren't cheap though.

I absolutely love the look, and that paintwork, and the sound.

I know they can be an absolute dog with the problems they throw up, but I'd still love to have one.

Anyone that buys one of these now is either mightily naive and/or has mahoosive cojones.

Sadly I don't have the latter so will never know how much fun these can be, when they work :D

I watched Edd China replace the chassis on a Cerbera that Mike Brewer picked up cheap. Some job, but he made it look easy.

Best of luck with it.

I sent that to my mate when he bought his, he sent this video in response.


Some days, crashing it into a pole to write it off seems tempting instead of dealing with the 'niggles' :D

I remember years ago walking down a local street with a friend and stumbling across a Tuscan parked up. We spent a few minutes walking around it admiring the 'flip' paint and the carbon cans poking out of the back. A lady, probably late 30's was walking towards us looking like a stereotypical scruffy tree hugger (matted unwashed looking hair etc) . to my amazement she walked up to the car opened the door hopped in and fired it up (what a noise) and hooned off in it. Me and my buddy just thought WTF and he said "I though she was going to key it!"

No point to this story but I thought I would share. :p
