After looking for a while the cheapest C7 I found in the UK is £52k lil bit over my budget :-(

I can get something like this 2014 car 7k miles for £33k in the states , allowing £500 transfer to dock £1500 shipping and tax and duty would be £45600 al in so a worthwhile saving , but after calling and emailing a couple of recommended US car specialists in the UK about conversion costs a week later no one has got back to me .....
Has anyone done this and know the costs involved ???

Any advice gratefully received :-)

choice of nearly 2700 C7s in the states on Autotrader.com under $60000 compared to about 5 in the UK

managed to get one in the UK :-) fully loaded 3LT Z51 manual box which is exactly what I wanted :-)
The cheaper tax would of been nice on an import but at least I get a full 18 months Chevrolet warranty on this as a UK supplied car ...
I am very happy with the car and would highly recommend one so much more improved over the C5 or C6 really feels like it has jumped 3 generations !
