[tuna8]

ok, so admittance is the final stage...i have been lurking!

i bought my chimaera 400 in august and so far i just haven't stopped smiling!
this forum and it's users have been brilliant for some niggles i've had and almost all have been sorted using their suggesions!

here's to many more months...years? of fun, top down motoring!

Well done.....can't wait for the good weather eh?

'Tis an unusual colour methinks?

[tuna8]

it doesn't even need to be warm! just sunny does me fine! the last few days have been great

[tuna8]

erm...storm grey i was told! i don't fancy kicking off a 'which colour is best' topic...from the last one i saw it would carry on a good while!!!

Hi Tuna, welcome from the closet! Nice looking car. I'm in Crowthorne with a Peacock Blue Chim 450, so will keep an eye out for you. Don't see many Tivs around, but expect spotting to increase once the sun starts shining.

[tuna8]

you're right...i haven't seen too many around yet! nice looking gold badge on the bonnet btw...i like!

Hi Matt

Had mine since similar time, loving it. Discovered plenty of good driving roads around Reading. My mate has a green s2 so we've had a few good blats around even this winter!

Give us an e-mail if you're up for a drive anytime, or we'll probably see you at the club meet?

Cheers

James

cheers james i'll look forward to seeing you around! i haven't made it to a meet yet but i will soon enough! i use the road from caversham to oxford everyday so as long as there's no tractors you can normally blast along there

As long as it's a Chim (or any TVR for that matter - Chims are best though!) then who cares what colour it is?
Lovely looking car though, not seen any in that colour before!

A4074? Great road.... My favourite bit is coming to that stretch where the bikers cafe is and then flooring it as you come out of the roundabout!

[tuna8]

cheers zippee...i've seen your profile before, i love the dash and steering wheel look, really works well!

james thats the road i was talking about (A4074), but at the roundabout you mentioned i turn off towards drayton st. leonard so i haven't carried on past there yet...one day i will and just won't bother going to work

[forthright mc]

Tis indeed a lovely looking car, a very nice colour and not too dissimilar to mine (grey starmist). I was out in mine on Sunday, bloody cold but lovely and sunny, one of the few pleasures left in life, enjoy it before the buggers impose a grin-tax
