So long as you’re walking into a C6 with your eyes open to the running costs and also the (very few but very expensive) potential issues then all should be ok. They are a very characterful raw and emotive car and owning one is a proper tick in the box!

Its not ''miles per gallon''. Its ''smiles per gallon''.

My long term average is a tad over 17; on a run its a tad over 21.
As it stands I have no idea if she's stock or tuned; Yet to determine that, but as has been said already; always puts a smile on my face, I do have a heavy boot ;)
