Tattershall castle looks a little more grand with your beautiful Vette out front.

The culture shock between Las Vegas and UK must be something else. Has the adjustment been difficult? I Nevada plates on the car look good.

Cool, so what reaction do you get from the locals to your Vette? I don't suppose there are that many in that neck of the woods...

Culture and Las Vegas J/K.

Its a lot different. I think you can say we miss the bright lights. But that said, the English countryside has a lot to offer in its own way. Nice to see some green grass again. but It'd be nice to see the sun again

Sadly the NV plates will be gone soon. I'll get something catchy like EG51BLA or some such thing

I'm not supposed to drive it until I get the Brit plates on so its had limited exposure.

My son's Camaro is back on the road. Safe to say a Gold Camaro in Lincolnshire turns heads. I think a Mag Red Vert with the roof down may do the job

Surprisingly, theres a C4 and a C5 in the local village. Turns out the guy is a Vette fanatic. Who would believe it?
