The Appeal
There have many other Corvettes, but none quite as distinctive as the remarkable ‘shark nose’ C3. Its iconic ‘coke bottle’ styling kept it in production for a remarkable 15 years, virtually unchanged.
Here is one of the last built, its classic white over red colour scheme just one of its stand-out features. It is a rare ‘Cross-Fire Injection’ model, running the fuel injected system that was introduced fo the final year of C3 production and delivering 200bhp with improved economy.
It presents well, the bright leather interior being a particular highlight. It holds USA title but with European importation papers included and taxes paid. There is also a clean Carfax document. All of which makes it ready to register with the new buyer.
