Found my Chimaera!!!

[TVRTC]

Thanks to all that have given advise etc on purchasing my Chim, most appreciated.

Finally found my car !!
1999 Chimaera 400, good condition interior and body, A1 mechanicals, and only minor surface rust on the outriggers.
Navy Blue interior and of course the fastest Silver Grey available.
Can't pick the car up for 2 weeks as I am off on holiday this Saturday. Bugger !!!
Will have to take Steve Geaths bible with me to read by the pool.
No doubt when I get the car I will have numerous stupid newbie questions or you all to answere.

Regards..........TC.

I'll be a little kinder...

Buttons

Left knee = dashboard lights
Right knee = boot release
Rectangular slot next to ignition keyhole = deactivate immobiliser
Open the car with the 'blipper' and don't turn the ignition on for 20 seconds, = the immobiliser comes on and you need to deactivate with the bit that fit's this slot (or press the blipper a couple of times)

General

Extra storage = behind driver and passenger seats
Storing roof = curve of roof wraps around petrol tank, put the passenger side in first and the rest is easy (takes a couple of seconds)
Spare wheel = hmmmm, carry a can of tyre weld (fits nicely behind drivers seat)

Other

Take it very easy with the loud pedal at first... and enjoy reading the bible on holiday

Well done!
