Description
Due back with us in November.
TVR Chimaera 500 - 1999/ T
31, 700 miles from new.
Paradise Purple with Magnolia.
This stunning example came to us via Holland in the early part of the summer. The car was exported there in 2011, but we brought it back home to good old Blighty, and then sold it to a newbie to TVR's.
In fact... he's loved owning it so much so that he's now after one of our Cerberas'. So, it's back with us again after less than 1000 miles. Read on...
The car has a large history file, with many invoices going back to day one. The 5. 0 unit was the subject of an engine rebuild at TVR Power 11, 000 miles ago back in 2009.
The engine, chassis, paintwork, and interior are as you'd expect of such a low mileage example. It presents very well and gleams in the sunlight.
Back in the summer we did our usual Shmoo Automotive high standard mechanical prep, replacing bushes, fuel hoses, sorting oil leaks, including the rear main crank seal.... and a full and proper 12k service.
The car had new Bilstein shocks fitted while it was in Holland, they are still in excellent condition.
Fitted with a straight-through sports exhaust, and sounds like a V8 should.
New tyres just fitted.
Feel free to call and make an appointment to view the car.
