It was a ‘club first’ for Classic Corvette Club UK last night when members were invited by GM to attend an exclusive preview of the new flagship Corvette ZR1 ahead of the London Motor Show.
Over 70 Vettes attended the event at the Fairmile hotel in Cobham, Surrey yesterday evening.
This 6.2 litre supercharged, ceramic braked, 647 ps, 205 mph Corvette only landed in the UK a couple of days previously and is the only one in Europe and the first in red to be seen in public.
GM said that this unprecedented preview was a thank you to the loyal members of the Club.
