Good C7's are thin on the ground and Z06's are super rare over here and demand big money(as they do in the US). You want very detailed provenance on any imported Corvette. Strong C7 values in the US combined with costs for shipping/import duty/VAT/IVA makes for thin dealer margins on mint cars landing in the UK, so anything that looks a bargain may have a dubious past (flood damage being a common one).

Here's one currently for sale:

The top car on the list is approx 85,290 GBP before you even start to think about all the costs of importing to the UK...!

This thread is good to remind me how lucky I was to come across mine and how it was a good idea to snap it up!
Think I’ve only seen one other like it for sale here in 4 years.

Excuse to post a photo of course

Does it have to be a Z06 or would a UK spec Grand Sport be of interest?

Late 2018 (2019 model year), 8,000 miles. LT3 spec.

Not surprising looks a lovely car in a stunning colour ,Last of the proper front engine Corvettes,

It is still listed on "Car and Classic" but i know Adrian sometimes leaves his ads running

even after they are sold,
