Actually not so new.....

It's 21 years old and in showroom condition.

That looks like it's in amazing condition, Pat! I like the colour too

Is this a long-held dream of yours?

Actually I always wanted a 1964 Corvair Spyder Convertible but we saw the Vette on display at the local dealership and we pretty much decided on the spot that we wanted it.

Penny drove it on a scenic twisting road yesterday.



Here's a '64 Corvair.

What a nice looking car with great lines considering its age - I think you made a great choice with the Corvette.

The colour is close to ours (if you can remember! )

I do remember. I really like the dashboard display.

Ian I have the same pressure washer, now saving to get the same car.

Nilfisk are very good because the consumer ones I believe have more robust metal pumps while the more popular Karcher ones have plastic pumps. But I do find the hose fitting is very stiff. Customer support is excellent too - no wuibbles when the spray gun started leaking! 👍

The car is a nod to being green and a special treat after a windfall. We bought it as a 3 year old used car from Tesla 18 months ago now. On the plus side I estimate we've saved £3000 in petrol and around 5 tons of CO2.

I had two Karcher machines and both had very poor leaky pumps. Bought a Nilfisk 2 years ago and was surprised how much better it was. Never had any problems with it or any of the accessories. As for the car I'll have to make do with my Peugeot 508sw, which I bought last year. At 82 I think it will be my last car.
