Hi to u all,just a little tale.Ive allways loved tvrs and after having my house burgled and along with other items the keys and my car dissappeared.Saw a local car dealer selling a 4.00 chimera pursueded wife to come and have a look.Got her approval(thats a 1st) so took it for a test drive could not beleive the roar and the speed of it and comfortable as well.Thought we'd have a look around so a trip to fernhurst tvr was next, saw numerous chimeras looking all lovely had a great chat with Simon (there buyer)who explained alot of wot i didnt know which was virtually everything.A test drive in a 1998 chimera was next wow blew me away i loved.Kindly on return put the car in the workshop up on the ramps for an inspection then i saw a nice green 1997 chim and wow did she look nice offered a test in it i was told it was the 5.00ltr version enough said signed the dotted line can't wait till next saturday.

a nice end to an unfortunate turn of events, enjoy it mate, when you get a nice summers day like yesterday and the country roads are clear it feels just like you are on holiday - even if its just a day trip.

I did similar, I popped down to Fernhurst for a general look and ended up with a Green 98 Chim 450.

Having a great time, just got back from a week around the south coast of reland, it didnt miss a beat !

Enjoy !

I didn't do similar! Lots of dithering was the order of the several months' looking for me! Got a beauty in the end. Jealous of what you are and will be going through now as a new owner. That experience can't be repeated! Have fun!
