hey

just trying to track down my dads old chimaera 4.0 and wondered if it might be on here, it was sold to oselli back in 2007 and is in halycon atlantis, i think its a 2000/2001 model. the garage havent replied to any of my emails so thought id see if it could be on here.


cheers

If it's oselli from Witney in Oxfordshire they closed down about 2 years ago

It was sold to these guys.

That was the company that was based in witney, however the postal address is now MK17 0NY which is Great Horwood but the telephone number [phone] is a witney number.

So either they moved from Witney to Great Horwood or did in fact shut shop

As a company they primary worked on old Aston's, old MG's, old TVR's also sold these type of cars

Looking on companies house web site the company address is

OSELLI LIMITED
D2-3 GREENWAY BUSINESS PARK WINSLOW ROAD
GREAT HORWOOD
MILTON KEYNES
BUCKINGHAMSHIRE
UNITED KINGDOM
MK17 0NY


The last Made Up To: 25/02/2012

I cant find a contact number for the Great Horwood location, but i can go and have a look at the old location in witney to see if they left a new phone number on the show room window

Oselli are certainly still in business, they just got sick of paying the rates Witney were charging - see http://oselli.com/. They seem to have kept their old phone number - at least it worked for me when I got my TVR serviced with them earlier this year.

Over the years I've seen quite a few TVRs pass through their doors, can the original poster provide a bit more detail?

[C2james]

im going to try and find the original in some old paperwork we have but i think the interior was alcantara, side indicators were changed from orange to clear and the exhaust were made louder not sure how but possibly sleeved.

Oselli regularly advertise in Classic & Sportscar.

Seem to remember them having a couple of Chimaeras and Griffs in their adverts - none recently though.

Well known company - usually associated with (old) Minis, back in the day.
