4ltr 570bhp chimp....really??
Discussion
I can't speak about driving modified versions of the Chimaera or the Cerbera 4.5
But in the same way that I can swear to you, from new there is no way you could compare the performance of a 4L Chimaera with a 5L Chimaera, there is no way you could compare the 5L Chimaera with a 4.5 Cerbera.
I got out of my relatively new 5L and jumped into a Red Rose 4.5 for a test drive at my dealer's.
The difference in acceleration from 0-100 and beyond was staggering.
The difference in handling was staggering.
It didn't make me want to sell my Chimaera, but it made me want one badly.
If only I hadn't been forced to decide instead on the Volvo C70 Cabriolet for safely transporting my children...
Sometime life just isn't fair

Yes, but our 500bhp engine will do 100,000 miles without needing an oil change - and yours will have required 20 services.
and if I hear one more person whine about us removing the AJP I think I will video throwing it off a bridge just to fk you all off
make sure you throw the "Cerbera" and the "TVR" badges away as well coz what you got is a kit car. Anyway why are you worried about servicing costs, your dad does yours. and if I hear one more person whine about us removing the AJP I think I will video throwing it off a bridge just to fk you all off

Sorry, but just in case you missed it the first time here it is again.

440 yards. I will beat you 24 times before I need a refill.
so you got 484bhp for a few minutes then what 220bhp for the rest of the day, and all the way home. Sounds like a real drivers car. You would still lose at the strip and thats all i care about

Nah, straights are just a means of getting to the next bend, Cadwell is where any shoot out should happen, timed over 30 mins see which car covers the most laps and use that as a measure.
I would be itching to attend that:-)
Sounds like fun!I would be itching to attend that:-)
