Hi folks, back again. biggrin

I'm after a Chim again, I've sold my car so actively looking. As with my previous Tiv's I would rather buy from a Ph'er.

Budget around 8k, Don't want a show queen but mechanically has to be good and obviously a good chassis.

Hopefully I'm not breaching etiquette here by this post!

If anyone is thinking of selling please call.

The only stipulation sadly is not red.

Thanks

Mike.

This one is spot on your budget at 8k, I looked at it before buying mine and it is in extremely good condition. The owner has had it for something mad like 14 years and it's always been garaged and dry use only, 32k genuine miles ans he has really looked after it and serviced it etc. The only thing negative was that he hasn't kept the receipts for the parts used, but by talking to him at great length and looking closely at the motor I was in no doubt that he was being truthful to be honest.
Hope this may help?

Must admit, I've been hankering after another Chimaera too, Mike.
Similar budget and spec as yourself although I like red, wouldn't want dark green or black.
Would need to sell the red wedge to proceed though.

laugh I didn't like the grille either - easy enough to change though hey, it is a clean motor though, worth a look if you like the colour and spec etc.

It does look nice I must admit and lovely colour combination. That grille would have to go immediately.....It's quite a trot for me to look, but for the right one it's worth the travel isn't it....

James,if it's the one on your profile that's fine, it's just bright non metallic red that's madam's nemesis...

Besides I won't mention 'rosso' biggrin

I'll pm you my email address and would be obliged if you could send some detaills and pictures maybe.

If it's in budget then ears sounds perfect...

A friend of mine is thinking of selling his.
Not too far away in Cheltenham

Early model (1995 I think) in light blue metallic. Low mileage.
Had the cam done at around 30,000 miles. I think mileage is still
under 40,000. Outriggers good. Reliable car. He took it to Scotland
last year and it never missed a beat

Nearly bought it myself last year but just out of my price range
He's got too many cars and needs to sell.

If you're interested I could put you in touch.
