After stupidly selling my lovely 450 4 years ago to buy a Tuscan S.. I'm about to return to the fold with a 500!

Impatience got better of me. Would have loved to have tried to buy back my old Chim but don't know who has her. Did post a while back to ask if anyone knows the whereabouts of T212ACU but to no avail. So gone out and got another one :-)

Only downside got to wait a couple of weeks to pick the car up.

I understand why u have returned to the Chimaera, but what made u leave a Tuscan S ? I bought my chim 450 as it was <10k , perceived lower running costs etc. But money no object I think I would have had a Tuscan. Just interested, cannot imagine swapping my Chimaera now. smile

The Chim is Iris blue with cream interior. I'll get some nice pics up but as i can't pick car up for couple weeks, you folk are just going to have to wait..lol

Haven't left the Tuscan, it's tucked up in my garage :-)

Never thought I'd own two TVRs. Wish hadn't sold the 1st one but needed to fund the Tuscan. Can't see me selling it for a long time yet!

They are a completely different driving experience probably wouldn't have done this otherwise. Will see how I get on with two. Might be a mad idea but hey at least for a while it'll be fun choosing which one to take out for a blast.

Hi James,
For one evil moment I was going to claim to be the current owner of your old Chim and say it's currently for sale... I just couldn't do it!
So as you returning to V8 power, the logical question has to be - is it better than Speed 6?

Ha ha.. Steve I half expected someone to do that to me. Checking your profile I would have initially thought you were the owner of my last Chim!

Roll on two weeks! Just hope this good weather stays!
