I can forgive people who mis-spell it as "Chimera", because that's a common spelling, albeit not the one that TVR chose. In Greek mythology, either "Chimera" or "Chimaera" are acceptable spellings for the goat-lion-serpent creature.

If you ever visit the Antalya region of Turkey, take a drive to the place the legend took place, it's a decent half day out to see the story of our cars name.

What's the place called?
Chimera.

Hope my dyslexia & rubbish typing skills don't upset you toooo much, perhaps I could get a Proof Reader to inspect all my entries on this Forum :-)

I've got a photo of the sign somewhere, and there was iirc another spelling, I'll try to find it.
