The Velox was one of Vauxhall’s important large saloons, combining six-cylinder power with generous space and traditional British styling. In the early ’60s it competed directly with some of the country’s best-known executive cars.

Seeing those sleek, rounded saloons and classic wire wheels brings back the golden era of British bank getaway cars and motorway pursuit machines. From the crisp click of the overdrive switch to the deep, throaty roar of that XK engine, it blended raw getaway pace with pure executive luxury. Standing beside it recalls brass ignition keys, tweed caps on the rear shelf, and the sheer prestige of Grace, Space, and Pace.

Seeing that upright stance and classic Three Graces styling takes you straight back to post-war British optimism. From the gentle hum of the overhead-valve engine to the bench seat that held the whole family on Sunday outings, it was the benchmark for middle-class motoring. Standing beside it recalls flask-brewed tea on the parcel shelf, crisp paper A-road maps, and the simple pride of early fifties drives.

Seeing that long, sweeping bonnet and sharp fastback tail brings back the exact feeling of peak eighties cool. From the heavy click of the door latch to the throaty exhaust note bouncing off factory walls, it was the ultimate working-man's dream coupe. Standing beside it recalls fuzzy dice on the mirror, wax polish on crisp white paint, and the pure thrill of owning a Capri.

Looking at those distinctive Coke-bottle body lines and deep-dish steel wheels brings back every memory of seventies suburban life. From the iconic sloping dash to the steady drum of that crossflow engine on the dual carriageway, it was the king of the company car park and the ultimate family cruiser. Standing beside it recalls road atlas books in the glovebox, deckchairs jammed in the boot, and the absolute pride of owning a red Ford.

Seeing that classic curved cab and rugged rear bed brings back every memory of honest hard work on British country lanes. From the mechanical whine of the gearbox under heavy load to the simple pleasure of a thermos tea break on the tailgate, it was the ultimate trusty farmhand. Standing beside it recalls quiet morning deliveries, muddy B-roads, and the proud grit of a vanished era.

The Cerbera was peak TVR character: dramatic styling, a ferocious powertrain and almost no interest in doing things the conventional way. The combination made it one of Britain’s most distinctive performance cars of the 1990s.
