TVR Cerbera 0-160mph

[52022]

Can yu even buy these in America?

[bellevueace6]

@52022 Sadly no, but I think John Travolta bought the Tuscan he used in Swordfish. I could be wrong but I think the headlights are too low to pass federal inspection for starters...

.....thats a really nice hand thar.

[DilkingtonsDiary]

I did 180 in my Tuscan..........the window wipers blew off and the speedo needle remained stuck on 180......umm officer its not what it looks like

[thegreathistorian7]

sounds like an angry norse god.

[moondog203]

Just like a subaru imprezza sounds like a misfiring vauxhall nova with the exhaust manifold removed your TVR (with a what engine?) sounds like a nascar opening a bag of crisps.

Ready salted please, Cheese and onion are nice, but they tend to repeat somewhat...

Damn thats crazy that it has an LS3, I thought TVR's Cerbera motor was a rare gem or something that people wouldn't want to swap out. Can't argue with the extra 50 plus HP though....

[jonnbb]

Ive read about this car in the past on pistonheads. May have another look later on :)

I love it because it combines the looks and handling of the cerbera(and lets be fair its the best looking tvr ever), and the realiability of the ls3. Even at the state of tune that it is (600bhp+ at the crank) this engine is like an old bmw m30 engine in terms of reliability compared to the ajp v8.

Me along with everyone else loved the ajp motor though. But this is an ajp with x 1.75 performance..

[DannyBoySmith1993]

nearly 64k miles in a TVR, & it's intact?? :P

[lscerbera]

No, just NA 6.9ltrs.

[brokenwrist67]

is this the supercharged one

[VidalBuffoon]

Yoinks! I nearly soiled myself watching that.

[1993gandy]

:O speed was at 0 then i looked away for a second and you were going 90

How much power is the engine producing?

I timed 0-160 in about 15 or 16 secconds!! That isnt far of veyron pace, and certainly a lot quicker than almost any other hyper or supercar you care to mention, just STAGGERING!

[lscerbera]

Its 513rear wheel horse power, but genuine! ;)

[TomHoldsworth667]

@lscerbera

Thats really spectacular, nice job!! Your my hero lol

Got a griff 500 at the minute, i think thats effin fast lol but its nothing on this beast.

i would love to get a cerbra and do the ls3 conversion. What have you had done to it after fitting the ls3?? Because as far as i can see the standard ls3 puts out either 430 or 480bhp depending on its state of tune.

[ShopVids]

@lscerbera and in 2000lbs :D

[robseven7]

@TomHoldsworth667 Need to remember that these things way nothing too...mental! :P

[Jonoichi]

@TomHoldsworth667 not sure if this was the speed 6 or speed 12 but the 12 will keep pace with the mclaren f1

[SomeoneSmarter]

LS3 engine? Is this the build on Pistonheads?

[lscerbera]

Thats the one!

[zorbathegreek192]

Feck a duck!!

I can't believe I've just bought one of these bad boys!

Currently getting some body work and remapping!

I suspect down the line some left wing hemp wearing hippie will try and band these loud engines!

[coltsuperocean10]

Of all the cars in the world and money no object, I would go for TVR anyday!! I would need big bucks to keep it running, but TVRs are fucking awesome looking and performing motors!!

[ratboyproductions]

I've yet to see it in the flesh. Top job

[lscerbera]

It has a highly tweaked LS3 engine.

[05027802]

that is posiibly one of fastest things i've ever seen in my life

[TomHoldsworth667]

There is no way this thing is standard!!

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO IT!!

[Greig300]

Thats just insane! nice car :P

[tetley110]
