Delivery of First Chim A Success!

[cliff123]

Well what an adventure! Boy are these chim's different. Having almost got bored of driving, it all seems new again, except, things seem to be going by a bit faster!

Picked up my first TVR Chim this morning and haven't stopped all day. Who would have thought bit of metal could be so much fun, just need to find a way to convince the miss'es its as good as I say it is. (any words of wisdom on this?)

Within in minutes of leaving the garage I meet a fellow Chim driver coming the other way with flashing lights, and realised I'd just join a select club, and had not just bought any old car.

Well happy driving to you all, hope to see you soon at the next meet. (When and where?) I’ll be the one with the Biggest Grin on my face.

Ps. Thanks for you words of wisdom a few days ago. Particularly the one about the right pedal thing...

I found it.

Sorry to dissapoint and disillusion you Cliff, but you suggest the Chim is a "bit of metal"..............(It's actually plastic !!)

Keep up the good work however, and enjoy....14 months down the line and still

He obviously thinks the chassis makes the car so much fun....or something

I was generally referring to the 4 litre lump in front of me, but admittedly the glass reinforced polyester resin body does obviously keep the weight down, combined with the tubular steel frame chassis and the leather interior and walnut veneered dash, just caps it all off. In summary I like it all!?!?!
