Anyone else seen this advert for Motorola that features a silver Chimaera (no badges, but as sure as my name is Clint Toris it is a Chimaera).

Its obviously filmed abroad as they are driving on the wrong side. Ive seen it on TV on the continent a few times but never in the UK.

Storyline features a broken down Chimaera (ironic), mechanic comes out, looks under the lid thing at the front, touches what would appear to be the engine block, does a thumbs up and the Chimaera drives off into the sunshine along a perfect, twisty road with no other traffic.

It would appear that the Chimaera is LHD

Yep, seen it a few times. Nice original theme - TVR breaks down, oh - we never saw that coming.

There's also an advert (poster) in the local UCI cinema for an Orange BOGOF film promotion at the moment that has a Chim in the pic.

Maybe they're trying to compare the reliabilty of the Motorola brand with the reliability of the TVR brand ??

The mechanic utilises Motorola wireless technology in order to diagnose the problem once he opens up the lid thing, probably the stepper motor needed cleaning

There's a Pukka Pies poster in a chip shop on Broad Street in Birmingham that has a Tiv in it too!

Can't say that I'd eat pie and chips in our Griff though, well maybe with the top off!!
