I've never seen a spotted Corvette, although I did see a red Beetle with ladybird spots

Spotted 13 Vettes tonight at the Surrey monthly meet

Just pulled into a layby on the A3, near the M25 around 12.30 this afternoon, in my truck and climbed on the bunk to rest my weary eyss and some noisey bugger went past in a C3 corvette ESTATE?

Was I dreaming?

Spotted what looked like a red C6 Z06 on the A33 Chinham yesterday. End of reg VTE. Nice.

Very nice indeed. Is it a very late model as I couldn't tell from the reg?

The reason for asking is that the rear end looks "taller" in the centre and the rear lights seemed to be different so that the outer lights were shining at the top and the inner lights at the bottom rather than in line as normal. Looked good though.

I could be wrong as I was quite a way back in traffic, and at first thought it was a C7 due to the unusual lighting configuration, but managed to close by the Tesco roundabout to see enough of the side profile / rear end, and of course proper round lights fully lit by side and brake lights, so could not do a close inspection!

Nope. By a curious coincidence I saw/heard the same car driving through Esher that same afternoon. Lives somewhere around this area.

Have seen this super black '72 Stingray (XHO 1) twice in the last couple of months. First time parked at Brooklands museum and then driving through Weybridge. Owned by Simon Taylor of Classic & Sports Car magazine if my memory serves me correct.

Odd - nice small block car - but 68/69 front grille and lights - side exhausts and cove trims were 1969 option.

I read an article on this car some time back, but couldn't find it on the internet yesterday. Seem to remember that he has owned it for many years and had it rebuilt/refurbed after a long period of non use.
