stickylabels Posted February 8, 2020 Author Share Posted February 8, 2020 Hello All, many thanks for this. It is proof of a great wee club with people looking after one another. My Son and I made the trip today before the really duff weather came in. The car looks pretty much like it does in the photos, i.e very nice indeed. From my perspective it did need some money spending on it, the gearshift was a bit loose, reverse somewhat awkward (probably me to be fair) but the tyres seemed to be dated '02 (!) and definitely too big (16"). Once on cam it certainly got going just fine but it also needs a gear indicator of some sort to avoid the guessing game. The gears also worked counter intuitively, ie, forward for up and back for down. All of these things are fixable of course but at a cost that I don't want to incur just now. So great bit of fun, but I think I'll hang on to the the Cerbera a bit longer and see what comes up. Thanks again, Sticky. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
