Description

1997 TVR CHIMAERA - CHINA BLUE 1997 TVR Chimaera | 88,000 miles | 12 Months MOT | Huge Service History A fantastic opportunity to own a proper piece of British motoring history. I'm selling my 1997 TVR Chimaera, beautifully finished in China Blue with cream leather interior. The car has covered 88,000 miles and comes with a full 12 months MOT. One of the biggest selling points of this particular car is its history. It comes with a huge service and maintenance portfolio, with documented invoices showing over 16,000 spent on maintenance and upkeep throughout its life. Specification & Highlights 1997 TVR Chimaera 88,000 miles Stunning China Blue Cream leather interior Full 12 months MOT Huge service and maintenance portfolio Over 16,000 documented maintenance expenditure Replacement roof fitted at some point during its life 2 sets of keys 2 alarm fobs Manual gearbox Original-style TVR alloy wheels This is a 30-year-old car that has been regularly used and enjoyed, and the mileage reflects that. It hasn't spent its entire life tucked away in a garage - it has been driven, serviced and maintained. As you would expect from a car of this age and mileage, there are some minor age-related marks here and there, but these are all in keeping with the age and regular use of the vehicle. I would rather be completely upfront about this than describe a 30-year-old car as being perfect. Overall, the car presents extremely well for its age. The China Blue paintwork with cream leather interior is a beautiful combination, and the Chimaera still has fantastic road presence today. For me, the extensive history is particularly important with a car like this. With over 16,000 worth of documented maintenance, there is a substantial record showing the money that has been spent keeping the car maintained over the years. It's a proper old-school British sports car - lightweight, rear-wheel drive, manual and packed with character. Cars like this offer a completely different driving experience to modern performance cars and are becoming increasingly difficult to replace. There is a large history available to view with the car, along with plenty of paperwork and invoices. Genuine enquiries only please. Viewing is very welcome and recommended
