Wobbly plastic old muscle car, but still very cool.

A C5 Vette, right hand drive, manual, targa top with an LS1? Low mileage too. What's not to like?

Even the yellow seems to suit it. For £25k ish seems a good buy, apart from petrol at £7.00 a gallon and rising.

One of our buyers, where I worked, dated Miss Wilcox in his day. Probably wishes he'd spent his hard earned on a Corvette.

Toyah was the first person I saw 'live' in concert. I was 17, it was in Aylesbury, she was sexy as feck. I last saw her 3 years ago at a 'let's rock the 80s' festival in Norwich. She was still as sexy as feck. Me less so!

Hi, does the car have any history in Norwich?

A very similar car including the reg. was/ is just round the corner from me

B21, did you actually buy it? The auction winner tag is surprisingly close to your name....

I was seriously tempted…had I not still to sell my 20i E89 and my Jeep…..and if I wasn’t transferring money to various Ukrainian charities then yes I would have…probably good for matrimonial relationships that I didn’t..

I wonder what the ‘vet owners groups are like ?

How much did it go for?..oh I see 22,400…better value than a 35is…

Apologies, thought it was you, would have liked to see what you could have done to that car as well... Looks like people called Pete are liking yellow cars

( I really hope I did not get your name mixed up or I'll really sound silly)

I am surprised it did not sold for more, makes me wonder how it would compare to a Z4M from a power/handling point of view, especially as it is a Z51 package, and prices are close. Sadly, you'd have to wear polo/short/white sneakers and play golf to integrate the owners forums
