I had the Steve Heath Chimaera Bible on my Christmas list and Santa let me down badly. Have done a quick Google and it seems a tricky find and the one I could find was £40. Anyone got any leads for a cheaper one?

Hope you've all had a splendid day and merry Christmas one and all.

Well worth the investment in my opinion, it has helped me out plenty of times.

Gotta say he has a point, nice to have a copy at hand to thumb through, but whats in there and more is available from the guys on PH.

You really don't need this book, every chapter should be called the bleedin obvious ! It isn't a Haynes manual and isn't worth the money ..... Really ! and all the info you need is available on the web, save your money fill the tank and go for blast the rv8 pages on the web are more usefull, I did a full body off and rebuild without the use of this manual .

I entirely agree although I am genuinely surprised by such generosity. Have sent the PM and feel suitably humbled.

Bravo Steve - hope you've replaced the Chim with something similarly fun.

Just had a look at your Cerb thread - looks mean as anything in black.

Thanks again Steve, hugely appreciated.

Hi TheYellowPeril,

Thanks very much indeed, its a lovely project that I'm thoroughly enjoying (given the chance!!). Book wrapped and ready to go. I post them through work so will be leaving Monday. If no show by next week give me a shout.

Hope you all had a great new year and looking forward to more TVR madness in 2015. thumbup
