It sounded im good health to me. My office is there and live just up the lane from there. Just got back into a TVR after a 4 year break.

I have to say it is running sweet, but desperate to use a few more revs!
You can’t beat the sound of a 5 ltr rv8 on tick over though... wink

I'm running in two other cars at the moment but almost at the 500 miles needed to give them full beans. Very frustrating!

20+ years ago I used to have a large window cleaning job on Honiton highstreet that I started around 6:30am.
Very often the early morning silence would be broken by the most fantastic sounding Chimera as it rumbled and echoed of the walls.
Just ace !

It seems incredible that they were introduced 26 years ago. I got my first Chimaera 17 years ago, wanted one for many years after hearing one on Clitheroe high street where I lived at the time.

I was never in the position to run a TVR so made do with a number of 3.0 and 2.8i Capris. Brilliant in their own way but lacking the full fat content - Skimmed maybe...
