Description
It is with great pleasure that we bring to market this stunning TVR Chimaera 400 with attractively low mileage and just 4 recorded keepers from new. Benefitting from significant recent expenditure and extensive recommissioning, this British brute must be one of the finest available.
Far from a wallflower, the Chimaera makes quite the statement, both visually and aurally. Refinished in Arena Red Metallic - a colour worn by contemporary Porsche models - the paintwork presents in exceptional order with minimal imperfections or blemishes. Having covered negligible miles since completion of restorative works and recommissioning, there is a notable absence of stone chips or visible evidence of use. The staggered fitment 16-inch alloy wheels present without flaw having been subject to professional refurbishment and each wearing reputable, branded rubber. Aside from a small abrasion on one corner of the targa panel, the roof is exceptionally well preserved.
Stepping inside, you're greeted by a timeless combination of Magnolia hide and walnut veneer. Telling of the car's modest mileage are the leather upholstered seats exhibiting little in the way of significant wear or stretching. All switchgear operates as intended and similarly presents with negligible evidence of use. The dash panel is free-from cracking or delamination.
Mechanically, the car has been appropriately managed with attention given both to aging or deteriorating components and to preventative maintenance. To summarise the most notable of these undertakings, recent work includes clutch replacement, 12,000-mile service consisting of replacement spark plugs, air filter, fuel filter, engine oil and filter, braided brake hoses, CV joint, and wheel bearing. Benefitting from a fresh coat of underbody wax and with a reassuring MOT history absent of any associated advisories, the car is as solid and structurally sound as one could wish.
Accompanied by a comprehensive collection of MOT test certificates, historic tax discs, service records, additional invoices and literature, the car boasts enviable provenance.
