Well done to you and your Dad, you will love it they are just so addictive.
Mine is a Yellow 2000 C5

Nice. We need to see more cars like this being used, kick start the global warming and get summer back.

[Pete102]

so much want for that car. Lovely!

Was that in Essex somewhere?

If so I think I saw that car at a classic show in Clacton a couple of months ago. I only ask because some of the cars around it look like some of those at the Clacton show too.

It was at the stars and stripes show at tatton park, not bad to say we only went for a walk to buy some polish!

Think that may be my grandads old car...

I will bookmark this thread and ask him when I can. If so, I will have many fun tales for you, like how my Dad pissed him off by constantly blocking the drive with his XR3. What did my Grandad do? Smash it out the way...The Escort was annihilated, where as the 'vette didn't have a mark.

How cool is your Dad

[kwakus]

That looks and sounds fantastic, it would be addictive to keep firing it up

[Hodgie]

lovely and the noise!

[roadman]

your more than welcome to come and park that next to my office, could listen to it all day

Very nice! I've never been to any of the american car shows at tatton. Odd really, because I love american cars and tatton is only about 15-20 minutes from my house!

Corvette looks very nice! Should be awesome! I'd love one myself one day
