Didn't know there were any Corvettes in The Village.
One Lotus 7 and a couple of Mini Mokes.

There are 5 Corvettes in our village and they are all "local".....one has twin turbos two others are supercharged........and there are 2 C3's!

Our village is so small it isn't even classed as a village

There is also an Iso Grifo, a D. Tomato Pant Tearer and there will soon be a Dodge Viper.

Is that the new shape Mustang??? I spotted a new Mustang at Watford a couple of weeks back. It sounded and looked really good.

Nope, it's Ian Nicholls he has a lovely Pantera with the reg 3GO.

Discovered ANOTHER Corvette in the village today! A black 1979 under a partial cover whilst doing some exploring. No one home, but will try to get in touch again with them soon.

Tha makes 5 and counting......not bad for a hamlet with less than 50 houses!

Hmmm. just seen the Z16 for sale in the PH classifieds. It doesn't have a carbon fibre boot lid and it isn't unique... not that I'm sniffy about it.
