Hi,

We're looking for a mid-90s Chimaera to feature in the next issue of evo. There would be some road driving involved but no performance testing or track work. We would insure the car. We'll also pay for fuel, food and accommodation, and you'd get a nice set of prints of the car after the feature's been published. The story is happening next Monday and Tuesday (Dec 11 and 12) on Exmoor.

If you've ever fancied seeing your pride and joy immortalised in print, please drop me a line at petert@evo.co.uk

Many thanks,

Peter T

Are you after pristine ones to show how nice they are or well used ones to show what you get for so little outlay these days?

We're looking for a car in good condition, not necessarily concours, but one that will photograph well. Most important is that it's mechanically fit and drives well so that we don't have to make excuses for it!

Pity it is so far away. Just got my super-fast blue one back from full external refurb. Looks magnificent.

Goes pretty good too - why don't you do it in the New Forest? hehe

Here, what's wrong with my roof? It doesn't fold down anywhere near that flat... I get a nice view of the interior light and sod-all rear visibility when I try to fold my roof down, seems to stick up about 9 inches higher than the roof in that pic...

Undo the velcro on the hood by the doors and it "should" go down more

Agreed - but it doesn't!!!

Might be that the screen is a bit old and stiff... never mind, that's next on the to-do list...

I can make those days if required. Not yet found one the same colour, at least it would be unusual.
