Description
TVR Chimaera 500 (2000) – Crimson Stardust – 78, 558 miles – Fresh TÜV & Service
I am offering my 2000 TVR Chimaera 500 for sale, finished in the rare and attractive colour Crimson Stardust Metallic with 78, 558 miles.
The car is accompanied by a detailed independent expert report confirming a Condition Grade 2 (good) and an above‑average technical standard. The vehicle has just received a fresh inspection, including a new starter motor, and passed new TÜV and AU (MOT & emissions) on 28 January 2026. It is therefore fully roadworthy and ready for immediate use.

Crimson Stardust Metallic
Independent appraisal: Condition 2 (good)
New MOT & emissions test: 28/ 01/ 2026
Recent full inspection + new starter motor
- Consistent and well‑presented paintwork with a clean metallic finish
- Good body alignment with typical TVR tolerances
- Original interior in good condition with light, age‑appropriate wear
- All controls and instruments fully functional
A major strength of this car is its technical condition. The expert report describes:
- Engine, drivetrain and cooling system in very good order
- Refreshed underbody, including new frame and renewed suspension joints and bushings
- Recent brake service
- Tidy electrics, functional seals, hinges and closures
- Original TVR alloy wheels in good condition
Many of the typical maintenance items required on a Chimaera have already been carried out. The vehicle drives precisely and confidently, without unwanted noises or play in the steering, suspension or drivetrain.
This vehicle has retained a high level of originality. No aftermarket modifications affecting character, drivability or value have been carried out. This is increasingly uncommon among Chimaera 500s and supports its long‑term collectability.
Offered only due to reduced recent use. The car has been maintained with the intention of preserving it, not simply keeping it running, and I would like it to go to an enthusiast who values these qualities.
A solid, honest and well‑looked‑after TVR Chimaera 500 with:
- documented condition,
- strong mechanical integrity,
- recent major maintenance work, and
- new TÜV/ AU and inspection.
Further details, photos, and the complete report document are available to serious buyers.
