Hi Dearhound

Flick through the Chimaera pages, and you'll see this question debated many times.

General answer is buy on condition.

For that price a 400 or if lucky and can find one a 430. You won't get a good 450 or 500 for that sort of budget!

Deerhound,

If you want a good 93 Chim, buy mine, I have been made redundant, and it looks like it going to have to go.

You could buy my 450 if you can stretch to it, it's brilliant! Will be gutted to see it go though... :-(

I've just come out of a modified Nissan 200SX into my first TVR, a 400 Chim. It is not especially quick, but get the roof off and you won't care wether it is a 400, 450 or 500. The sound and feel is fantastic!

Agree with all that. It's the main reason I kept my 400 for 4 years. Always felt I needed a little more power but the grin factor easily made up for it!

Nah man, you need a 500. You can't have too much of a good thing!
