My new Chimaera - plus pics

[pac1uk]

Only had my car a week, so nice sunny day better give it an inspection and a decent clean inside and out.










I did want to get the wheels off, but couldn't get the trolley jack to fit, it's OK on the Lotus and thought it was low enough. How do you guys jack up the car and what jacking points do you use?

Thanks.

Very nice ....
As for jacking, if your jack won't go low enough then use some off cuts of Wood, drive the car onto first to gain a little extra height, jack under the main chassis tubes or the corners of the outriggers, also under the diff if you want to just raise the rear.

Thanks for the positive comments.

Yellow was not on my list when looking. I wanted a Blue or Red and no PAS. So I ended up with Yellow and PAS. But condition is everything when buying.

It's a happy car it leaves me a present on the garage floor! I have a PAS leak and a water leak to fix.

Lovely motor, congrats.
I jack mine first with a scissor jack under one of the chassis rails to give clearance, then use trolley jack under front crossmember.

That's lovely, congratulations. PAS leaks are pretty common, try tightening the jubilee clips an/or adding another pair so there are 2 per site of the joint..
