Description
The name Chimaera was derived from the Greek name 'Chimera' a mythological monster made of up multiple animals, however the Chimaera was the best selling TVR ever produced and undeniably the most comfortable and practical. More suited for longer touring, but with the grunt and burble of the much loved Rover V8. We completed an extensive restoration of this model in Starmist Blue, including a full chassis refurbishment, engine rebuild, respray, carpets, upgraded brakes and suspension, exhaust and cooling system.
