As the C5 started production in 1997 just intrested what model is the most popular in the UK?
I would think that if we are talking about euro spec cars 99MY is the one, AS GM had loads left over into 2001. But after 01 the rest would have been US Imports or cars brought in from europe.

At the time I bought mine there was some kind of strike action interfering with production and i had to wait 6 months for delivery! Those were the days... So my car ended up as one of the gaggle of Euro '99s and, sure enough, the UK dealer's franchise was taken away between order and delivery! GM were at that stage keen to have the Chevrolet Corvette and Camaro sold by Vauxhall dealers. So that went well.

I've got no hard figures but it always seems there's another spike somewhere around 2002.

Meanwhile - I must see 5 new Mustangs on the road round here for every Vette (of any age).
