This 1996 model has been lovingly cherished by its current owner for nearly 20 years and thoroughly enjoyed. It is being reluctantly offered for sale as the owner has finally conceded that the low seating position, just inches from the ground, has become a bit too challenging to enter and exit gracefully. In his ownership, it has been meticulously maintained, with a recent comprehensive service including a full engine tune-up, new exhaust system, and the replacement of any components nearing the end of their life. The car runs as smoothly and powerfully as it did the day it left the factory.
The interior of this Chimaera presents well, featuring Leven aluminium stalks, gear knob and handbrake handle, alongside a beautifully crafted wooden steering wheel. The beige and green interior exudes British craftsmanship and a genuine sense of luxury for a sports cars of this era.
With documented history, low mileage, in excellent original condition, this Chimaera represents exceptional value, and remains a standout example of TVR's engineering and design legacy, delivering an experience that is as thrilling today as it was when it first roared to life in Blackpool.
Supplied with UK V5, comprehensive service history, receipts, MOT history, original Targa roof cover and original owners handbook in TVR leather wallet.
This classic vehicle will be coming to auction with Dore & Rees Auctions on Saturday 21st September at the Castle Combe Autumn Classic. For further information please contact the Motoring department.
