Never seen this combination before....

I'm crap with colour names, but saw a 'red' Chimaera with a 'red' roof down in Lymington on Sunday afternoon, parked on the quayside outside the Ship Inn.
'T' plate with Barnet TVR on them. Is it the colour but the car looked tiny - mine's blue looks quite fat - you got some admiring glances from a couple of kids getting out the eurobox parked next to you.

Almost as good as the guy spending a good 5 mins+ giving the Elise we parked behind a good coat of looking at!

If you find the name let me know please, I'll get a new suit made up

You'll probably not like this but... mine came in cherry pearl, red roof and gold badges, but I do live in Essex. One of the many benefits of any combination of the above is that I have been chatted up three times in Waitrose car park, had tourists in the City taking photos (of the car) and lots of interest from our the natives when travelling through France. I have to say (see another thread) that I wasn't prepared for all the attention the car provokes but you just have to get used to it. Its great fun then.

That's interesting - my Chimaera is Cherry Pearl too, but has a black roof. I guess the hood colour was an option at build time?

Can't say I wouldn't like it - never seen it. Colour choices are so personal I think.
Fernhurst had a Chimaera in recently in..er...Desert Moondust? Blimey, I just stood and stared for ages, I still think about it but can't make up my mind if I love it or hate it!
Anyway it would be boring if they were all the same!

mark - checked it out whilst i was up there - didnt do it for me i must say. but as you say, very personal thing colour choice.

give us a chance to decide, get a pic in your profile!

Sounds ok to me, so lets see it!

I'm technologically challenged so unable to post photo, but I'll try and get one in the club magazine.
I saw the car in the showroom and fell in love with it, couldn't really afford it, but bought it anyway.
I fitted the Leven stalks etc the other day - really simple to fit and well worth the £80 or so.
