1994 TVR Chimaera 500 HC SOLD
I bought the car after it had been kept off the road for a year due to the previous owner not have the time to use it. Despite this, the car had considerable works undertaken during his ownership including a replacement roof from Central TVR in 2013 and a clutch assembly replacement later the same year. Since purchasing the car, I have overhauled the front suspension with all new lower wishbones, bushes and ball joints, fitted a new windscreen and given it a thorough service. The chassis has had all major work done by a previous owner (i. e. outrigger replacement and repainted in the original silver). As with the majority of TVR's, the car has a bulk of service history and invoices to validate work done over previous years. The car comes with its owner's handbook containing full service history up to 50, 800 miles; 2 sets of keys; and the original tool kit.
In terms of paintwork, the metallic blue paint is in excellent condition. There is a small paint defect below the 'Chimaera' badge (typically I use a PH sticker to cover the area!). The interior has aged well with the car, although the drivers seat is beginning to show wear. Full set of Bridgestone Potenza tyres fitted recently.
Modifications have been kept modest to solely improves the car's reliability/ driveability. The exhaust is standard with exception of pre-cat removal and a Gemini alarm system has been installed to prevent the hot start issue.
Always happy to talk over the phone if you have any questions. The car is located in Lymington, Hampshire.
