Firstly I hope that you can see the picture I've taken of my P&J (first time using Fotango)Cause if you cant then this posting is a complete waste of time!
But having looked at the TVR classifieds tonight I noticed Fernhursts are selling a Chimaera in Formula Red, which I thought mine was. But the one for sale looks like a metalic finish where as mine is a flat finish. I do like the colour of my car, but I just wondered if somebody out there could put me straight.
So here goes lets hope this works!
Thanx

If it's the original colour, ring the factory with your chassis number and they'll tell you what it is.

You didn't buy it off a fireman or a postie did you?

Hiya,
Nice car! If that is the Chim formerly owned by "Leg1", then it is Formula Red. The Fernies car is a solid colour, but the light reflections in the photo are deceiving and give the impression it isn't!
Hope to see you on a few 'runs' out then??

Yep I'm pretty sure it's Formula Red (as opposed to Post Office Red as someone suggested)but hey when she's pollished up and Glyptoned inside then she looks and smells fanbl@@dytastic, so I'm happy.

Wheels by the way are KAI racing.

Morning!
Luke's still got his (he saw the light and decided to keep it) although this one is remarkably similar. They're almost twins!

Hi me again,
If it helps as to who the previous owner(s)were, I've had her since May 04 and bought her off Mark Burfitt out Cambs way (still keep in touch with him - nice guy)
The interior may throw you too as I changed it this time last year from Magnolia to red.

Hiya Doug,
Are either/both of you up for the run to VW and the tunnel run this weekend? Would be good to see you both again?? If not we need to plan a run out ourselves!

Formula Red is definitely a solid colour. Rooster's Chim is F/Red and it looks great when polished up.

Names not on the list yet but I'm planning on VW and I think Luke is too. See you there!
