	TVR Chimaera - Review
		As with most modern TVRs the dashboard is a lesson to the purveyors of plastic that a stylish interior is always possible from simple age old British recipe.
		TVR is still tarnished with questions over built quality but the Chimaera is showing the benefits of a long production life.
		Many Chimaera owners upgrade from an S and are initially disappointed with the softer ride and the relative lack of feedback compared to the talkative S. However it's just a different car, talking in softer tones.

	TVR Car Club
		We have always argued that with the performance available in any TVR, it cannot be fully exploited on the public highway so we give our members the opportunity to drive on the race circuit at our various track days.
		We support TVRs in Motorsport and a large TVR Car Club gathering always makes the annual pilgrimage to Le Mans in France every June for the '24 Heures du Mans'.
		The TVR Car Club is always represented at the major national classic car shows, such as the Bristol Classic Car Show, the Bromley Pageant, the Classic and Sportscar show at the NEC and the Goodwood Festival of Speed.

	TVR Chimaera Convertible 1991
		The Chimaera has its roots in the TVR Tuscan racing car, introduced in 1988.
		Test drivers were immediately taken with the Chimaera’s character, which is an almost forgotten combination of pure V-8 power with rear wheel drive and an exciting roar from the exhaust.
		And few other cars can match the Chimaera’s character-interior: everything is covered in leather and shaped from wood.

	TVR Chimaera Pages - About the TVR Chimaera
		The TVR Chimaera first appeared in 1993 and it was intended to be more of a GT car than its sibling the TVR Griffith.
		They are probably the most desirable of the Chimaeras, with levels of performance close to that of the Griffith 500 whilst retaining greater practicality.
		TVRs have always has their quirks but here are a few that are worth knowing.

	Review of TVR CHIMAERA (1993 - 2005) - If there is such thing as a sensible TVR, then the Chim (Site not responding. Last check: )
		At the time, TVR were basking in the adulation heaped upon the Griffith, and the Chimaera only served to reinforce the perception that here was a home-grown manufacturer capable of mixing it with the big boys.
		In truth, the TVR Chimaera is similarly cobbled together from a disparate set of components to form a fire-breathing entity.
		TVR themselves admit that due to the amount of personalisation a customer can build into their car from new, it?s extremely unlikely that two identical Chimaeras have ever left the factory.

	TVR Chimaera 5.0 - 1999, AUTOCSalon SINGING AG, Autosalon, roadster, sports car, Invetstments, Fonds, Kapitalanlagen
		The name Chimaera is deduced from the Greek and stands there for a feuerspeiendes monster with the head of a lion, the body of a goat and the tail of a queue.
		There are only few vehicles in the performance class of a Chimaera and it is almost not possibly a vehicle in the today's offer of a car manufacturer to be found, which can show such a successful Design and the exclusivity of a Chimaera.
		The Chimaera is settled in the house TVR particularly as sporty GT and possesses a good-natured handling and also a larger trunk than the other models.

	Tvr Chimaera
		TVR is unique in having survived not just as a marque, but as a thriving independent manufacturer.
		TVR was founded in 1947 by Trevor Wilkinson, who simply used three consonants of hisfirst name for the company name.
		Chimaera is the common name of the species in the familiesCallorhynchidae, Rhinochimaeridae and Chimaeridae which all are closely related to sharks; they are alsocalled ghost sharks.

		The Chimaera is a convertible with stowable roof panels and has quite a practical boot, certainly sufficient for a weekend away for two.
		The interior is one of TVR's strong points presented in leather and walnut but with refreshingly modern style.
		Unfortunately TVR do not have a reputation for the highest reliability although fundamentally the cars are quite sound and very well priced considering their shattering performance.

	TVR - Wikicars
		TVR was established in 1947 by Trevor Wilkinson.
		TVR made use of proprietary engines, like many low-volume manufacturers, to power its cars for many years.
		That began to change in the early '90s with the birth of the TVR V8 engine, which in 1995 became the world's first racing engine to be de-tuned and installed in a road car: the TVR Cerbera.

	Fernhurst TVR
		The TVR Chimaera was introduced at the 1992 Birmingham Motor Show and was instantly hailed a success.
		The name Chimaera refers back to Greek mythology which speaks of a fire-breathing monster thus named with the head of a lion, the body of a goat and the tail of a serpent.
		However, the Chimaera's handling has not been left to chance with a chassis developed directly from that of the racing TVR Tuscan.

		The TVR Chimaera is the entry point to the TVR model range.
		It has been designed to be every bit as much of a Grand Tourer as a sports car with the emphasis being evenly split between ride and handling, torque and horsepower, practicality and light weight.
		It is propelled by the legendary TVR Power development of the Rover V8 which in its current 4.5 litre form is sufficient to propel the car from a standing start to 60 mph in 4.7 seconds and 100 mph in 11.2 seconds on its way to a top speed of 160 mph.

		It takes TVR's craftsmen 450 man hours to build every Chimaera and the attention to detail is immediately obvious from the hand-stitching of the leather seats to the shine of the burr walnut dashboard.
		The switchgear is machined from the highest quality billet aluminium and so proud is TVR of its manufacturing process that every customer is encouraged to visit the factory to see their car being built.

	The Automobile Association of Singapore - TVR awesome!
		Still, Chimaera is about performance, not refinement, and TVR is the first to admit it.
		Since the Chimaera's body is pretty much entirely made of fibreglass, the factory smells of the same glue and chemicals that you can sniff in a finished TVR.
		TVR's engineers inform us frankly that the early cars had ghastly faults, such as perpetual hood leaks, but that these teething problems have all been fixed.

	TVR Chimaera
		I spent a lot of time researching TVR ownership and running costs and found the Pistonheads website an invalable resource.
		The 4.0 HC engine is a tweaked version of the 4.0, with different cam, duplex timing chains and some additional head work TVR quote the engine as developing 275bhp and 305lb/ft, although these figures are known to be a bit of a myth - normal outputs seem to be around 30bhp down on these figures.
		There are various TVR specialists around the country and I have used a few (see Links section) who charge very reasonable prices and did a very good job.

	TVR Chimaera (1992-2002) - 4Car Road Test from Channel 4 - Introduction
		Crowd pleaserTVR's renaissance in recent years is largely down to the dramatic styling and performance of its glassfibre-bodied, sports cars, which appeal to the baser instincts of enthusiast drivers: subtle they ain't.
		The Chimaera, with its "milder" engines and roomier body is more practical than the exciting but thuggish Griffith 500; it's manageable without being too over-the-top.

		If anything, because of the torque and the power steering on the second car, a Chimaera is easier to drive then many small cars.
		The TVR Chimaera has a really nice spec too, with leather and walnut cockpit rendered in a refreshingly modern manner.
		The 4.0 and the 4.5-litre models are manageable, but the 5.0 litre might be a little too much for the inexperienced driver.
