Over the last week I've been experiencing vibration to my Chimaera when I'm at speeds of 70/80 (ish), to the extent that I now can't see out of my rear view mirror due to it vibrating. I'm taking it to have the wheels balanced today, but is there anything else i Should look for.

Would that be a slight 'going over the knobbly bits on the white line at the side of the motorway' kind of vibration, 'cause I've got it a little (enough for it to raise some concern anyway..)

Also broken engine mounts, knacked propshaft UJs, CV joints on drive train, loose wheel nuts etc etc.

"I'M SO GLAD I ASKED!"

Phil from PR WOODS who is my local TVR specialist is very kindly going check my Chimaera over tomorrow.
I've also ordered two new back tyres as the current ones look like me BALD, well nearly.

Frightening how quick things can deteriorate, if you dont pay attention.

Must get it sorted as Harlow meet this Saturday, Mid Essex Sunday and Chatsworth next week.......
