SUMMARY
Part of a family-owned private Collection, this TVR Chimaera is offered without Reserve.
DESCRIPTION
- Less intimidating and more thoroughly sorted than the Cerbera and Griffith models, the Chimaera offers 95% of the thrills with a tiny dash of practicality
- First registered in 1994, this TVR was supplied new by the Zoo Garage (TVR) in Surrey. It's believed that it spent 12 years on the road before being dry stored. Subsequently returned to the road in 2017 and has since been part of a private Collection
- Finished in Starmist Green with a black soft top over an Olive Green leather-trimmed cabin and sitting on ‘Imola’ 5-spoke alloy wheels
- Powered by a High Compression (HC) version of the all-alloy naturally aspirated 3,950cc V8, producing around 275bhp and 305lb/ft of torque and mated to BorgWarner's T5 5-speed manual gearbox, enabling 0-60 in 4.6 seconds and 158mph
- Supplied with its original folder and handbooks, previous MOTs, invoices and both keys
- Dry stored, maintained and occasionally started and run in the 18 months since our vendor's husband's passing, however some recommissioning may be required before regular use
- Offered without Reserve
