From one extreme (5.7 litre) to the other (0.05 litre)!!!
How do you find driving the LH drive car in the UK?

A quirky mix I must say, but all very nice.  The corvette looks outstanding, I'm sure it sounds outstanding too?

PeterT apart from the odd occasion when overtaking I find driving a LHD in the UK quite pleasurable.
I am sure it helps that it has around 450bhp.

I just changed my Golf GT TDI for the X3 as I have always liked them.

The Corvette averages 12mpg (between 9mpg and 23mpg), the DAX around 100mpg so need my daily driver to be 35mpg+.

Don the sound of the Corvette is awesome. It has a custom 4 tail pipe exhaust and induction kit.

I only use it on odd occasions for a little bit of fun.
It is 23 years old and only has 700 miles from new.

It has a few performance parts (for a mini bike) fast road camshaft, sports exhaust and a 75cc big bore conversion.
These were all fitted at 500 miles.

That must be the most pampered Dax around.  I do like the look of it.

Is it the LS engine in the corvette? If so is it LS2 or LS3? I got a holden with an LS1... Lovely engine!

Something irrestible about V8's...
