1999 TVR Chimaera 4 litre, pas SOLD

Wild Oyster pearl paint, half hide beige seats and antelope colour carpets.

This vehicle is the facelift model and is totally original (never been messed with), original chassis, original factory paint, T5 gearbox, serpentine Rover v8 engine and power assisted steering.

Never been used on track days.

Current mileage 63000.

MOT until June 2023 (no advisories).

Only 3 previous owners.

2 keys and remote lock blippers, central locking, immobiliser and alarm.

The car has always been garaged under my ownership and has only had dry weather use.

I have the V5C which is in my name.

Radio with CD player.

T8 CHM personalised registration plate will come with the car T(vr) 8(cylinder) CH(i)M.

Full service history up to 51531 miles with 6 stamps from TVR Main Dealers (Henley TVR Heritage and David Hendry) and rest from independent/ specialists. Since then I have carried out routine servicing there are some additional invoices for brake discs and pads, AVO coil-overs (front and rear), re-cored radiator, new alternator, tyres, exhaust manifold gaskets/ bolts etc.

Supplied with original leather bound owners handbook, stamped service history, and an array of invoices and old MOT certificates.

Tyres are all Toyo Proxes with good tread.

The interior with half hide beige seats is very tidy with no rips or tears, the dashboard veneer is excellent.

The hood has had a minor sewing repair to rear window (2 inches long). The rear screen is clear. The central hardtop has a score mark on the canvas top.

The exterior paintwork is still very good albeit there are some small stone chips commensurate with its age and mileage.

The chassis/ suspension has been regularly cleaned, treated, painted and oiled during its lifetime (last done Nov 2021). The outriggers are original and still in very solid condition.

The car drives very nicely with all instruments, switches etc working correctly. The gearbox still feels nice and taught.

This facelift Chimaera features the 240bhp 4 litre serpentine Rover V8 engine mated to the 5 speed T5 gearbox driving the rear wheels with no driver aids. No surprise the performance on offer is impressive given the low weight GRP body resulting in 0-60mph time of 5. 1secs. Having said that the car has so much torque it is also happy to potter along whilst you listen to exhaust noise.


Every time I drive the car it puts a huge smile on my face, from the gorgeous V8 exhaust note to the performance. Unfortunately due to my advancing years the car is not getting used enough and it is therefore with a heavy heart that I feel it is time for someone else to enjoy the TVR experience.
