Description
The time has come to sell my beloved 1999 TVR Chimaera 450. I have owned this car for the last 5 years and have enjoyed every second of driving this wonderful car. This particular Chimaera is fitted with a Steve Edwards removeable hard top which makes the car look very special as well as benefiting from improved weather protection and refinement. It is designed as a two-piece structure which allows the car to be driven with the centre targa panel removed individually, or as a full convertible with both panels detached. Both sections fit into the Chimaeras boot. I have yet to see another one which must make this car quite rare.
The 450 engine paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox makes for an exhilarating driving experience with the exhaust notes from the V8 turning heads wherever you go.
Complete with a comprehensive service history at reputable TVR specialists including Sussex TVR – Horam for the last 4 years under my ownership where not much has needed doing. I had the targa panel re-sprayed as it was a bit shabby and on the last service had a new master cylinder and brake servo unit along with a new windscreen.
The car is presented in Crystal Verde which looks amazing and an unusual colour. Showing current milage of 60, 650 miles. There are a few age-related scuffs and a small star crack on the bonnet but the car has just been for a £500 specialist valeting & detailing. MOT valid until October 2024. Original owners handbook with all service stamps and 2 keys.
A real pleasure to have owned this car but time for a new home as I don’t get a lot of time to enjoy it.
