I heard one being started up and it certainly was somewhat quiet.

What are the various stages in making a Chimaera exhaust more vocal?


What's this chap done to his 4.0?

I’d say that the main stages of making a TVR more vocal are anticipation, then excitement, followed by regret. hehe
Love your user name.....

25 years ago I had the misfortune to purchase a temperamental Cerbera that didn't even get me home from the dealership and later left me stranded on a wet dual carriageway...

Before the days of Swiss Toni the salesman told me that having a TVR is very much like having a mistress "to get the best out of her Sir you have to be prepared to spend a bit on her"....

At which point I sold it and enjoyed a BMW Z3M for a couple of years...

No idea why I'm thinking of re-entering the TVR world but my SLK55 R172 is leaving me cold.
