Picking up C8 on Saturday

[liquidsilver]

Going to Ian Allan on Saturday to pick up my new C8. Ade will be coming with me to make sure all is ok.
also my next door neighbour Kevin is going to pick his up .Same colour red mist. Can’t wait.

Does this place you're picking up the C8 assure that all GM controllers software TSBs have been done ?
As being, it looks like GM local to UK is very limited I would be sure getting it know that all software updates have been done

 

[liquidsilver]

As far as I am aware. Ian Allan are the sole UK dealership for GM

If you know the VIN # put it in this website to see all TSBs for 2023

It was our Essex meet last night......two, new to us C8's independantly turned-up, one a 'vert in Accelerate Yellow (which is a really vibrant colour, perhaps closer to a lime shade and a blue car (Rapid Blue?)

Certainly seem to be some happy new C8 owners on the Corvette C8 UK Facebook page set up by Craig at IA Motors.

BTW
That blue was killed off and replaced with this blue shade for 2024 as seen with this E-Ray with black top

Compare of this year's blue to next years

This is my newly aquired C8 picked yesterday from Ian Allan. The C8 you see on the drive in the background is my next door neighbours car who also collected his.

So now that you have been driving this C8 Z51, how would you compare it to past Corvettes you have driving ?
Do any racing with it ?

Really needs that C8 foldaway license plate bracket for like carshows, etc
