1997 Low mileage, TVR Chimaera, in a classic colour com SOLD

Chimaera 400 Metallic Green with Magnolia Hide and Green carpets.
Only 49, 000 miles, runs very well , has been very reliable . Garaged , summer / dry use only
Have owned it since 2013 and as a knowledgeable enthusiast have maintained it myself , good doc history to 2013, never had a significant problem always passes MOT, now has 12 + months MOT .
Regular oil / filter changes ,/ full check over, plugs etc . Recent rear pads, small items eg Thermo switch , oil pressure sender , sump gasket , new battery.
Chassis and outriggers in good condition - regularly de-rusted and painted , Suspension nice and tight – well planted on the road .
Good original genuine condition, very presentable, leather all in good condition.

Always starts immediately , runs very smoothly with all that TVR power and torque .. and sound !!.
But If you are new TVR’s its not like driving a modern car , its quirky , fast, noisy , relatively heavy controls , the steering isn't power assisted but isn't as heavy as some make out , and is responsive – more like classic sportscars.
The reason for selling is that I am just not driving it enough so time to let another enthusiast carry the TVR flag .

The one to have - The 450 is widely considered the best-balanced of the Chimaera lineup, housing the fabulous sounding 4.5 V8. It has just had a full 12000 mile service including new spark plugs.
