After 15 months with no Chimaera I finally have one again!!
I have bought myself a 97 450 in pearl Rosso red with 24800 miles on the clock with a beige and magnolia interior! The car is immaculate with a good service history! I am so happy to have one again! The car drives like a dream recently having gaz golds fitted and a geo set up!! I will post pics later !!

Congratulations, it still amazes me that there are cars of that age around with those low miles - what sort of willpower did the previous owners have?
I've put nearly a quarter of the TOTAL miles mine now has - and that's since October!
I've got a 97 450 with under 23,000 miles on the clock. Had it 5 years this July :-)I've put nearly a quarter of the TOTAL miles mine now has - and that's since October!
500 bought last September came with 12,100 miles. Now has 14,600. A few paint issues but otherwise immaculate and drives very well. Service last week gave a clean bill of health and chassis in great condition. You sometimes wonder if a car could really have done so few miles but everything about it says it's true; no cracking leather, wool still malting from the carpet, original hoses not hardened or cracked, engine bay as good as new, it goes on...
Better condition than the '97 450 I sold 10 years ago.

My 97 had 19000 miles on it when i bought it in October, it now has 26000, in fact i just had to call my insurer to tell them I had exceeded the limited mileage on the policy and stump up an extra £93. not that I am complaining, it's worth every penny.
The previous owner had it on axle stands, in an oxygen tent, in an hermetically sealed garage! I think he'd cry if he saw it sat on my drive and being used in all weathers.
I originally intended to just use it occassionally but every time I think of going anywhere it's there on the drive, tempting me and I have no willpower at all..
