Chimaera needed for TV Show - May 7th, Coventry area

[theaxe]

I've been contacted by a researcher for the Discovery Channel via my site. She's looking for someone with a Chimaera available on the 7th of May, somewhere near Coventry.

All I know is that it's for a shoot on "Supercar alternatives".

If you're interested and available on that date please PM me and I'll pass on the details.

Perhaps a call to Dom might persuade him to make his turbo'd one available

Had to be quick to catch that one, topics removed!

Fifth Gear comparing Donkervoort D8 GTO, Caterham 7 and Chimaera. Chim wouldn't have been my first choice.

In the topic (now missing / deleted), it was suggested that the value of the car would need to be around £7500.

Who wants to admit (on TV) that their Chimaera is worth just £7500?
Certainly no wheelbarrow owner would say it.

Go on, be a devil

I've PM'd those who were interested.

Probably in about 8 months time was what was expected by the guys on the day.

[A900ss]

Did somebody say that this was on tonight or is it next week?

[A900ss]

Looks like it must be next Monday.

[A900ss]

Tonight on Discovery?

[A900ss]

Yep, was on tonight.

And that was a 4.0
