Default What a birthday present "i cant believe it"

Ok so my brother is 33 this year so not a big birthday this year but i got a text this morning to say his wife had bought him a present.

I'm not a big fan of american cars but this is trully stunning and it was apparently used in the GUMBALL 300 this year. The previous owner also said that GARY KEMP (Martin KEMPS bro) hence the number plate.

It has a 5.7i Corvette built lump and sounds the dogs B's

He brought it round and this is the outcome







anyway thought it would be a change to see something different

Didn't see it at the start - are you sure it was there, 'cos it sounds like a "story" to me ?

They're a quick car at they pod by the way .

Where are the strobing red lights?

Wasn't at the Gumball this year. Big old lumps though, cool reliable grunty power from that engine

Not what I'd call stunning but certainly not a shed either, and a cool pressie! hope he likes it

I've actually driven one of them a few years ago and it was really good fun actually. boaty and simple but good fun
