1999 TVR CHIMAERA

A rare opportunity to acquire an exceptionally well-presented TVR Chimaera 4.5, finished in the stunning and sought-after Starmist Green with just **27,000 miles** from new.

The 4.5-litre Chimaera is widely regarded as the sweet spot of the range, combining effortless V8 torque with the pure, analogue driving experience that made TVR famous. With just 27,000 miles, a **full service history, body-off outrigger replacement by DG TVR, and the major structural and mechanical work already completed, this is an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional example.

This car has been stored in a warm, dry garage and driven only in fair weather during my ownership.

The car has benefited from significant recent investment, with extensive maintenance and upgrades including:

* Body-off outrigger replacement by DG TVR

* New differential

* New adjustable suspension

* Recent new tyres all round

* Recent full 12,000-mile service with all oil, fluids and filters replaced. New spark plugs and ignition leads

* New fuel pump relay and ethanol-resistant fuel hoses fitted for compatibility with modern fuels

* Original headlight reflectors professionally re-chromed, providing excellent light output while retaining the original components.

One of the biggest considerations when buying any Chimaera is the condition of the chassis outriggers. This car has had the work carried out by the highly respected DG TVR with no expense spared. Removing the body is the no-compromise approach, providing unrestricted access to the chassis and allowing the work to be completed to the highest standard. While it is a significantly more labour-intensive and expensive process than repairing the outriggers with the body in place, it ensures the job is carried out properly and provides genuine peace of mind for the next owner.

The car is currently fitted with its original leather steering wheel. A wooden steering wheel is also available for those who prefer the classic British sports car look.

For buyers who value originality, the sale also includes the original Bilstein shock absorbers and the original Pioneer stereo, both retained with the car.

The car is accompanied by a comprehensive history file, including the full service history, MOT history and invoices documenting the work carried out.

This is not simply a low-mileage Chimaera. It is one that has benefited from significant recent investment by one of the UK's leading TVR specialists, with the major structural and mechanical work already completed. It is ready to be enjoyed immediately and represents a rare opportunity to acquire an outstanding example of this increasingly sought-after British sports car.

Serious enquiries welcome.
