Yep they're not the same good value in the UK they are in the US, but that's generally been the same with any US import here and certainly Vettes.

That's another reason they've not caught on in the same way over here - for the money there's just too many other good cars (and let's face it many with better quality interiors etc versus the older Vettes), so you really have to want one, if they were the same price as the US that's a different story.
