1995 Chimaera 400

[Ow]

Here's a quick picture of my new (very loud) beast!

It was faultless on the 150 mile drive home, so I'm hoping for a weekend of sunshine now to enjoy some top down driving.

I'll get some proper photos taken soon, along with a video of the noise!

[Jimmy No Hands]

Very nice! I want one of these so much!

[robsco]

Bloody lovely.

Hi i have had my Chimaera for about 9 mouth now it puts a smile on my face every time i go out i too am waiting for the sunshine i hope you get as much enjoyment as i do :-)

[Ow]

Had a nice little run this morning which included a nice tunnel (can't beat it!)

It was quite wet this afternoon, so stayed in the garage.

As long as the weather permits I'll try and give it a bit of a clean and polish tomorrow.
Oh yeah, and get some better pictures taken.

Looks fab with the black wheels

I miss mine a bit

[Ow]

Not much else to report yet, but it did pass its MOT yesterday with no advisories so that was a bit of a result.
It wasn't due yet, but I wanted to put it through to see what (if any) work needed doing.

I finally got round to giving it a bit of a clean this morning, so I thought I'd take a few photos before it went back in the garage!

Nice enough looking car. What is that little screw-ball thing on the transmission tunnel for?

[Jandywa]

Its to open the doors with. Twist to the left for passenger door, and twist to the right for drivers door

That's just what I was thinking Decent car if it is that one!

And great choice in car BTW!!

[Ow]

Yep that's the one!

Owned by a couple of PHers I think

[S10 GTA]

In that case, I know the car, and its fking loud. Gave me a mega headache on the way back from the NEC a few years back.

It is a bit loud isn't it!

I do love the noise, but I may have to look at what other exhaust options there are (once I've found out what mine actually has!)

Let's hear it then OP!

112db I seem to recall.

I think all the silencers have been sleeved.

That explains the noise then!

It does sound great, but I may have to look at silencing it somewhat.
Especially if I want to start using it for work!
