Sorry for fostering more pictures on you lot.But im four days in to ownership and enjoying it minute by minute.I,ve covered about 350mls so far without any drama,s and i suspect it will stay that way.Only probs so far,are the fuel gage.that seems to have a mind of its own(and mentioned in a previous thread).And the aircon needs a re-charge.It does,nt draw as much attention as the Cerb(no im not vain).But i do like to drive something different.And this does have massive presence.B.T.W you lot seem a friendly bunch over here.A lot like those on the Cerbera forum.Thanks to those that have already helped me out with querys i,ve raised so far.thumbup

Looking good Mark! thumbup

The irony is, many of those here, are ex Cerbera owners, perhaps it's all part
of natural progression?!

Got a few Corvettes on our tours next year already, so the Vettes are clearly
starting to grow in popularity. yes

I put that down to,due to the money.There really is,nt that much on the market that can compete with the Cerb apart from The Vette.Coupled with virtually bullet proof reliability,then you cant go far wrong.I was tempted by an XKR.But to be honest it did,nt really do it for me.Plus i had already had an XK before.I had,nt really considered a Vette until i drove my brothers LT1 and was very impressed.Thats what started the ball rolling for the C5.From driving my brothers to buying one.took less than two weeks.

Hi Mark

Picked up my car on Friday really pleased with it so far, need to get some new wheels. Yours are 20" & 19" ? I am looking at some similar to them do you know what size the tyres are ? and is there any clearance problems.

Very nice.Would look even better if you could have a deeper dish on the rear.

Great thanks for the sizes same as I have been quoted for, I think the rears would have a slightly deeper dish to them.

Cheers
