Corvette crashed / abandoned Farnborough

[S3_Graham]

Anyone been past Inchape ford today in farnborough??

there is an A reg convertible corvette seemingly abandonded (went past on way to work and its still there at lunch) on the grass facing the wrong direction. Rear LH wheel looks like its made contact with something and is massively dented.

Poor thing, i thought it was for sale from the garage until i looked back and saw the wheel damage!!

Ouch Is there something Corvettish going on at the moment? I saw 3 between the Bracknell and Frimley yesterday, one was all stickered up. Plus this 'ere dented one. What have I missed?

That doesn't sound to good at all Is it white with grey side panels and a black soft top?

Yesterday there was a load of us about 15 I think at TRL in Crowthorne.

Yesterday there were 18 vettes and a viper at trl but no A reg one. I don't know who that might be sounds like it strode out in the wet and mount the pavement???

Your SRT10's engine looked pretty epic.

First thing i thought was accident in the wet. It was black with black hood if that helps anyone identify it. Wheels looked a bit like Borbet A's

I wonder if it belongs to Laney from Bagshot, he is working on the Air Show I think. ??
Old model Vette C4 in filty black I think, he cant drive to save his life so maybe it stepped out on him.

Yep saw him last night, the ole codger was a bit sore and brused.
Low speed slide possbly due to wet road or some oil on the surface - he says.
Lost it and mounted the central kerb.

Told him to buy a Yaris and leave the V8 stuff those that can handle it.
He's ok and no other vehicles involved.
Just got to sort his car out before he goes back abroad in August.

Glad to hear he is ok. How is the car ?? it isnt too badly damaged is it??

I watched Wheeler dealers last night and they did up an old C4. didnt realise they only had 206hp!!!

C4 is the Skoda of the Vette world.
I realy like the late model ones......

Yeah, black one. It appeared while I was in having my swim at F' leisure centre, some time between 6:40 & 7:20. At least, I didn't notice it on the way in. Going a bit too fast to spot any damage to it but I did think it was an odd place to park.

i really like the look of them too, a gran sport would be great fun!

There are faster C4's though, the LT1 puts out 300HP and the LT er something puts out 330HP. As said the Grandsport would be a great car to have or the C4 ZR1.
