These cars are always miles away aren't they? (unless you live in Wigan?) That must be Andy Smith's car (?) After spending every weekend driving all over hee place looking for a vette I remember seeing that car for sale but when I saw where it was I thought "bloody hell, could't be any further away could it?!" I knew it was a nice well-known car but I'd just caome back from Leeds on another fools errand so I'd had enough.
Ironically I saw this Callaway for sale and curiosity got the better of me, just my luck it was in s*dding Stockport!! (bought it though! )
If I see a vette for sale locally I might just buy it out of principal!

Yep, it is (well it isn't now ) Andy Smith's vehicle... Which means that the car seems to be pretty well known!!
Andy had a private plate, which he removed and left me with some ugly Jxxx yyy plate straight from Swansea...
Had a look around the normal sites, and not much was available... C4 VET owned already ... so got C4 KOH, which - short of the "the" - should about say C4 King O' [the] Hill...
Absolutely love the car... too much with full power in the wet though...

And I should add that since I live in N Yorks, Wigan is only about 90mins drive cross-country... So no problems picking it up...
Once last, sad, sentimental drive there in my beautiful LT1, and drove back (quite gingerly at first!) in the Beast.
Andy took me out in the ZR1, and I must say it was *way* quicker than I imagined... I'd have thought the ZR1 was only a bit quicker than the 300hp LT1, but no... when Andy took me out in it, he scared the s**t out of me in it...

Sharp looking ZR-1 you got there, they're great aren't they?
Scared the s**t out of myself the first time I took mine for a thrash. When I took my neighbour out in it, he was gripping his door handle with both hands
My Goodyears went in the bin as well, replaced with Nitto Drag Radials for some serious traction action
