1999 TVR CERBERA4.0L PETROL

This 1999 TVR Cerbera presents as a low-mileage example with just over 54,000 miles recorded across nearly 27 years of ownership. That works out to roughly 2,000 miles annually, suggesting either very light use or extended periods off the road. For a high-performance sports car, this pattern is typical of careful ownership, though it also means suspension components, brake lines, and seals may have aged rather than worn out through use. The most recent MOT in July 2022 showed the vehicle passed, but with several concerns that warrant close attention. Both nearside and offside front inner tyres were worn close to the legal limit with edge wear, and the offside rear inner tyre showed the same pattern. More significantly, the test identified corrosion to the vehicle structure at two points: the outrigger in front of the offside rear wheel and the upright brace to the offside of the differential. Both areas were noted as corroded but not yet significantly affecting structural rigidity. Looking at the history, tyre wear on the inner edges has been a recurring issue. In May 2021, the same front tyres were flagged as worn close to legal limits. Before that, in April 2020, the nearside front tyre actually failed the MOT for being below the 1.6mm minimum.
