About this car

This 1998 TVR Chimaera has the 5.0-litre V8 and is finished in Giallofly Yellow, a colour that suits the car's lightweight, no-nonsense character. It has covered just under 31,000 miles, which is low for a Chimaera of this age.

The specification has been thoughtfully improved. The engine has stage 4 cylinder heads and ACT sports manifolds with a Y piece, plus an ACT silicon hose kit, yellow rocker covers and a detailed engine bay. Inside are Prussian blue leather with yellow stitching, perforated inserts, blue carpets, bespoke yellow dials, a wooden dashboard and an alloy cockpit kit. The car also has power steering, later rear lights, an angled rear number plate, a blue mohair roof, Estoril alloys on Yokohama tyres and an upgraded audio system.

The dealer has known the car since 2014 and lists a service history. It is reported to have made a trip to Cornwall and back with the roof down.
