Welcome aboard. I have an expatriate brother-in-law living in Leiden. He drives my Vette when he visits the USA. Do you wave when encountering another Vette on your public roads?

Welcome! These are great cars and I hope to have one of these in my garage in the future. I recently found a lot of great reviews thanks to https://www.pissedconsumer.com/for-b...ice-award.html . I love reading people's opinions, it can really be helpful when choosing or buying something. I hope to share my purchase with you in the near future
