Weighing just 1,060kgs, the TVR Chimaera derived its performance from more than just brute force, although with up to 285 bhp available, the driving experience was truly memorable. The Chimera was based on a Griffith chassis with a slightly more spacious body designed with more comfortable touring in mind; it was pure TVR and used a TVR power version of the Rover V8 with 4.0, 4.5 or 5.0-lite alternatives. Until 2009, this metallic blue Chimera had had only two owners, and subsequently the car had very little use. In the next five years, only 5,000 miles were covered. Sadly much of the car’s history has been lost, although it is offered with five recent MOTs, two keys and a V5c. MOT’d until February, this Chimera has a recorded mileage of approx. 104,000 and it has received a recent engine service with new plugs, an engine flush, a new battery and new brakes all round. In addition the chassis rails and floor have been undersealed. This appreciating classic will reward its new owner with so much fun.
