Buyer’s notes
About the TVR Cerbera 4.5
The Cerbera, built from 1996, was a 2+2 coupé powered by TVR’s own flat-plane-crank AJP8 V8; the 4.5-litre was the larger of its two V8s.
What moves the price
- Chassis condition.
- Engine history: the AJP8 had development problems, so its records matter.
- Service history: a full one is the norm for a good TVR.
Before you buy, check
- The outrigger behind the front wheel arch, a mud trap, and the tubes behind the sills for pinholes.
- The clutch: a very heavy pedal often means the diaphragm spring has failed.
- Electrics, water getting in, and clunks from the differential and suspension.
