Hi all,

Looking to return to the fold with another Chimaera. Ideally, I'm after a 4litre blue or green one.
I have a max budget of £7.5k, which at today's prices puts me at the bottom end with the Cat C/D's, which isn't a major problem for me, as long as bits are not hanging off etc.
Mechanics and cosmetics are preferably fine, but I understand that my budget is taking me away from perfect examples and am happy to look to fix/repair/respray in the future.

Please may you let me know if you know of one around that criteria, I lost out on one today due to being a bit slow and a telephone deposit beating me!

Thank you,
Steve

Steve,
YHMidea
Probably not what you are looking for but it's considerably less than you want to spend.
Bye

Sure, no problem:

"I was at the new Racing Green workshop the other day and whilst talking to the manager (David) about his thought on best colours for a Chim and he said he had a chim that was Nebular Black and said it looked fab in sunlight and that he was looking to trade it because they were too busy to prepare it for sale and with no showroom what was the point, they have to pay storage on it. he said they would sell it for £8k not sure what year or mileage."

Good luck Steve - I will keep my eyes open for one for you. They do exist - I helped someone buy a really excellent one for about your budget only a couple of months ago.
