The guy should get a medal, this car looks like it's been well used!

That's really nice to see and further evidence of he potential longevity of this engine and the car itself.
Seller buys his almost new Chimaera then consistently puts over 16,000 miles on it every year after that over a 14 year period
That's nearly as much use as my company cars typically get
I do hope it's not sold as a spares donor, like the seller says it would be nice to see the car restored, I'd love to see it returned to better than new condition & have a new life hopefully to then go on to rack up another quarter of a million miles.
When it goes I bet the seller will feel like he's lost an old friend
Here's hoping someone saves it

Just spoke to him, the phone hasn't stopped ringing. 
This will be one of those cars we talk about in a few years...
"I remember when you could buy a Chimaera for less than £3,000"
Exactly like what the old boys are saying today about a S1 Lotus Elan.
"I remember the 80's when you could buy a Lotus Elan for less than £3,000"
Fast forward 30 years and you'll struggle to buy a decent Elan for less than £30k these days, even a basket case project will set you back over £13k!

Someone got a bargain with that high mileage Chimaera, lets hope it gets saved

Gassing Station | Chimaera | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff




that's cheap for a major LS/Turbo conversion or similar where throwing a lot of the old stuff
