Discover the enduring allure of the TVR Chimaera, the 2001 sports‑car icon that still whispers power and exclusivity at every turn. The TVR Chimaera price can be a fascinating puzzle for collectors and enthusiasts alike. Though its launch in 2001 marked a high point for the British marque, the vehicle today remains prized for its lightweight chassis, distinctive styling, and the unmistakable sound of its 4‑cylinder engine in action. While the original production models hovered around a premium price tag, TVR Chimaera 2001 price ranges vary widely today depending on mileage, condition and market demand—making any realistic quote require a personalized assessment. ---

• Engine: 1.8 L, 4‑cylinder, 200 hp, 18 kW—an old‑school design that gifts an exhilarating manual‑drive experience.
• Transmission: 6‑speed manual with a close‑tuned gearbox suited to high‑rpm performance.
• Fuel: Premium petrol, a requirement that heightens both performance and maintenance responsibility.
• Layout: Rear‑wheel drive (RWD) with a mid‑engine placement that balances weight and agility.
• Dimensions: Length 4,200 mm, Width 1,810 mm, Height 1,300 mm, Wheelbase 2,476 mm.
• Weight: Approximately 1,150 kg—one of the lightest chassis in its class.
• Top Speed: Roughly 200 km/h (125 mph) depending on tuning.
• Acc. 0‑100 km/h: 6.2 seconds, a speed that still belies its age.

--- Depreciation Insight Even a car designed to be a performance icon doesn't escape the inevitable market pull. TVR Chimaera depreciation follows a typical high‑performance curve:

• First year: ~15‑20% drop due to entry‑level depreciation.
• Year 2‑3: ~10% per annum as the model settles into the used‑car market.
• Year 3‑10: ~5‑7% per year, moderated by rarity and collector interest.

This means a pristine 2001 engine that’s still roosting in its original body and low mileage can command a premium far beyond its original launch price. A “used TVR Chimaera price” that reflects these depreciation layers will typically be about 60
