Orange Chimaera on Q plate ebay

[ewan221]

Really liking the colour combo :-) but the lack of info and obviously the Q plate means a non starter for me.
I always thougt Q plates were for kit cars ?

Better news is I'm getting a decent bit of interest in my SLK at moment including a couple of potential swaps so hopefully will be a Chimaera owner before end of Summer :-)

A Q plate could be a car that was registered overseas and didn't have clear info on it's age when imported into the UK.

One point to bear in mind is that Q plates are non-transferable, meaning that they must remain with the car. You cannot transfer them to another vehicle, and you cannot purchase another number plate for the 'Q' plated vehicle.

A Q Plate is literally a VRM which starts with a Q prefix. Use of this plate indicates one of two things: a vehicle which was not originally registered in the UK and for which proof of age was unavailable at registration, or a vehicle which has been built using a significant proportion of used parts.

It is perfectly normal for a kit car to have a Q registration, but on other vehicles, it suggests that their full history may be difficult to trace.

It does look very similar to Dennis's chim and that orange does look good.

Like others I would be interested to know the reason why it is on a Q plate.

The listing says first registered in 2004, but it looks to me like a Pre-Serp so that would make it 1993 to 1995?

Not worth £6K, more like £4.5 for a Q pre 95!
