2023 C5 of the Year Finalist - Unmodified

Default Corvette Club of UK Nationals 2012

The UK Corvette Club got together yesterday for the annual Show. It was a new venue this year at an old country house called Putteridge Bury which is part of the University of Bedford. What a beautiful setting to show off the cars.

I thought I'd post a few pictures of the Vert in "The Walled Garden" where the C5s and C6s were on display.

The winning C5s were both Millenium Yellow; one with Lambo doors and the other from Ireland with a fantastic engine compartment.

We all thought the British weather was going to catch us out but after a threat of rain in the morning, the skies cleared for the trophy presentations and I got to drive home topless.

Seeing Vettes in Europe is way too coooool. Those are some great shots.

I remember being in Germany back in the 60's and seeing a few on the bahn, doing what Vettes do best..
