TVR Chimaera for sale :(
So I have not owned her for long and have fallen in love with her which makes this pretty hard but I don't really want the car sat on the drive
over the winter, a change of plans means I can't get it in the garage. Would like to see this go to a really good home where the car will be
cared for and loved.
1994 TVR Chimaera 4.0L V8.
Torqueflow upgrade (Inlet plenum, MAF and ECU tweak)
Performance contactless ignition system
Upgraded alloy radiator with twin fans
Black silicone hoses
Borg Warner T5 gearbox
Limited slip differential
Drilled and grooved disks
Team dynamics rally spec wheels with nearly new Toyo Proxies
Recently fitted new roof with removable carbon fibre centre section (fits in the boot with plenty of room for bags)
Lupo headlight upgrade (you can see where you are going at speed in the dark!)
CD player with Aux connector for ipod.
Electric windows.
Recent oil/filter change.
Origional TVR handbook with service records.
TVR space saver alloy spare wheel
Condition:
For a 20 year old car this Chim is in an amazing condition but it is still 20 years old! It starts, drives and stops better than some modern cars I
have owned. I have used it almost every day for the last 2 months and never had any issues. The bodywork is in fantastic condition. There are a few
stone chips on the front of the car as you would expect but the body shines in the sun and looks fantastic. The car is really practical; I can even
get my mountain bike in the boot! The parcel shelf is big enough for a couple of holdalls too! Even with the roof off and placed in the boot you can
still get a couple of large rucksacks inside.
I had intended to use the car this summer and then fiddle with it over the winter but I have decided it would be too much of a distraction to other
things in my life
.There are a few things that could be improved. Things like some new wing mirrors, cleaning the engine bay (polishing the alloy etc)
and just general cleaning and maintenance. The chassis outriggers which are prone to rust through appear to be sound.
This is not a garage queen, everything works properly so you can (and should) drive this car! Even in the rain its good fun and the roof keeps you
dry!
I will personally drive this car anywhere in Europe to deliver it for the cost of the fuel and a return train ride home!
£6600 o.n.o

If my kit was in a state where it was sellable, then I would be biting your arm off... I have had a real hankering to buy one of these recently, and
yours looks like an honest example!

All I can add is good luck with the sale. That is a desirable car. If my numbers come up I'll be beating down your door.
Just edited to ask if you want a scrappy WRX and a cat C registered 2006 Jeep Cherokee CRD (The £470 per year road tax one) as a straight swop....Nah?
Thought not.
