About this car

The Chimaera was TVR's V8 roadster of the 1990s, a light, short-wheelbase car with a Rover-derived V8 and no driver aids. This 2000 example has the 4.5-litre engine, in Silver Stardust, and has covered 51,290 miles.

The current owner has kept it for 12 years, with servicing by TVR specialists Xworks. The outriggers were replaced about two years ago for longevity. A major service was done in 2025, including a check of the cam for wear, and only about 1,100 miles have been added since. Other work includes a refurbished steering rack, new tyres, Ben Lang shocks, new injectors and an upgraded alarm with boot release.

The dealer describes the paint as excellent apart from a few minor chips, with a sound chassis and an interior showing little wear. It has a full service history and comes with the E82 TVR plate, and will be supplied with a fresh service and MOT.
