Summary:
This is a fantastically honest TVR Chimaera. In my ownership the car has been used for sunny days out, weekends away and the odd car show. It hasn’t been driven in the wet and always garaged on a trickle charger when not in use. I’ve always run it on 99 octane fuel. It is mechanically and structurally sound, benefiting from being enthusiast owned. The chassis/outriggers are completely solid, any inspection welcome (please see the long history of advisory-free MOT passes). Please note the car has been regularly used (all the better for it), and as such, the exterior and interior show signs of wear in line with the cars age/mileage. This said, as the pictures show, the car presents really well. In my ownership it’s been to TVR specialist TVRSSW, Wellington for a wheel alignment/suspension set up plus some other bits and bobs. TVRSSW were really complementary about the car, stating that it went really well and the chassis was in great order.
It comes with 2 sets of keys and a copy of Steve Hurse's ‘Bible’. The original space saver spare wheel is present. I also have a number of spares that will be included. I’ve fitted a Ctek trickle charger lead to the battery for ease of use (passenger foot well). The trickle charger itself will come with the car along with some other items such as a tailor made cabin cup holder and boot tidy etc.
If you are genuinely interested in the car, please contact me. I’ll gladly answer any questions, and can provide additional photos etc. The car can be viewed in North Devon (EX39). Thanks for looking.
