Description

FOR SALE - 1997 TVR Chimaera 4.0 - Stunning Example - Dual-Battery Setup MOT and service booked for this week, so it will come with an advisory free MOT, as my mechanic will do a pre-check before sending to the test. A beautifully presented 1997 TVR Chimaera 4.0 finished in an exceptional deep metallic burgundy red, complemented by a cream and oxblood leather interior with a classic polished wood steering wheel. This is a wonderfully looked-after example of one of TVR's most iconic drivers' cars lightweight, raw, analogue, and unmistakably British. The chassis has been fully restored and is in rock solid condition.

The paintwork retains a deep mirror shine, the bodywork is clean and smooth, and the panel fit remains true to TVR's hand-built character. The interior shows the classic TVR flair elegant curves, beautifully trimmed leather, and a dashboard full of charming analogue gauges. The car sits on upgraded multi-spoke alloy wheels giving it a more planted, modern stance, while still respecting its original design. Mechanical Notes The legendary TVR V8 fires eagerly and sounds superb, delivering the raw, engaging character these cars are known for. A standout upgrade on this particular Chimaera is the dual-battery setup, offering improved reliability and peace of mind especially valuable for TVR ownership.
