Did I hear my name? Yup, bought new from Clive Sutton in London who lost the Corvette franchise even before my car was delivered. Classic! I'm still enjoying a great car though; and now with cheap insurance and road tax as well. Maintenance costs average a meagre £180 p.a. (plus tyres). Even with depreciation added into the mix this has been a great ownership experience so far.

Bought my 95 ZR1 brand new with 6.5 miles on the clock in 2000. The car had never been registered and never out on the road so although it had 1 US owner I still class it as brand new. biggrin

Was that 6 1/2 miles or 6k miles? Cos' you class it as brand new does that mean you haven't put any miles on it?
