About this car

This 1999 TVR Chimaera 4.5 has covered just 16,821 miles, a very low figure for a car of its age. It is finished in Halcyon Atlantis over Nimbus Grey leather with grey carpets, and has been with its current owner for 24 years after just one earlier keeper.

The car has a full specialist service history documented in a large A4 file. In 2024 Powers Performance went through the engine and fitted its MBE kit, with dyno testing reported at more than 300 lb ft; total spend is put at close to £7k. Other recent work includes a new radiator and battery, an upgraded alarm and a full service.

It has non-assisted steering, so expect the unfiltered feel the Chimaera is known for. The MOT runs until June 2027.
