Beschreibung
The car has had a total of six registered owners in Sweden, including two private owners. The current owner purchased the Corvette in 2017 and has enjoyed it mainly during the summer months. Throughout his ownership, the car has been regularly inspected.
The odometer currently reads 63,093 miles (approximately 101,539 km). There appear to be some discrepancies in the Swedish inspection records, possibly due to confusion between American miles and Swedish miles when recording the mileage.
During his ownership, the seller has made a few modifications, including fitting a sports bonnet and an upgraded sports exhaust system. Both the original bonnet and original exhaust system are included in the sale.
The owner has carried out maintenance and repairs himself over the years. Unfortunately, due to illness, he has now decided to sell the car.
The Corvette runs and drives fine, with the engine, gearbox and drivetrain functioning as expected. However, the car requires some attention to the interior and electrical systems before it can pass its next inspection. Most of the issues appear relatively straightforward for someone with basic mechanical knowledge.
Known Faults and Defects
Passenger airbag: The warning light is illuminated, with fault code B0092 recorded. Online information suggests this may be related to the passenger seat occupancy sensor mat, although the exact cause has not been confirmed.
Boot lid: The lock mechanism is missing.
Driver's electric window: The window regulator mechanism is damaged due to a snapped cable. The electric motor and switches are functioning correctly.
Glovebox: The lock is missing.
Bonnet and boot lid: The gas struts require replacement.
Driver's seat: Damaged and requires repair.
Passenger seat: Requires refitting.
Bodywork and Overall Assessment
The bodywork is generally in reasonable condition, with no major or standout damage noted. The aftermarket sports bonnet has some paint blistering beneath the decal. Personally, I would simply refit the original bonnet, which is included with the car and appears to be in good condition.
There are also some paint blemishes and areas that would benefit from touching up, but nothing that appears particularly difficult to address. Please refer to the photographs for a closer look at the cosmetic imperfections.
Overall, this is a relatively straightforward Corvette C6 improvement project. The car runs and drives well, and most of the required work involves interior repairs, electrical attention and minor cosmetic improvements rather than major mechanical issues.
We have taken these faults and the necessary repairs into consideration when assessing the car's valuation, leaving the next owner some room to carry out the improvements while still having an attractive and potentially good-value Corvette once the work is completed.
Teknische Daten
Beurteilung Fahrzeugzustand

Zustand technisch
The car starts immediately using the push-button ignition, and the engine runs well with a steady idle, although there is a slight belt noise. On the road, the Corvette feels stable, with good brakes and a smoothly shifting automatic gearbox. The airbag warning light is illuminated. The alloy wheels have some scuffs and marks, and an additional set of winter wheels is included. Tyres on both sets are in usable condition. Overall, the car runs and drives well but requires some repairs before it can pass its next inspection.
-
Zustand Interieur
Interior requires some attention, with wear and damage to the driver's seat, particularly around the side bolster. The passenger seat needs refitting, and there is some damage to the trim behind the seats. The glovebox lock is missing, the driver's electric window is not working, and the push-button door opening mechanisms on both sides require checking. The air conditioning is also not functioning. Overall, the interior would benefit from some repairs and a thorough clean, which would greatly improve its appearance.
-
Zustand Exterieur
Bodywork is generally in good condition, with no standout damage noted. The Corvette features composite body panels, and as previously mentioned, there is some blistering on the bonnet, which could either be repaired or replaced with the original bonnet included in the sale. The roof and wing mirrors are painted black and would ideally benefit from repainting. The paint around the roof roll bar is discoloured, and there are signs of older repainting and paint touch-ups in various areas. The car is also fitted with a rear boot spoiler. Cosmetically, these imperfections could be addressed gradually over time to improve the car's overall appearance. The alloy wheels would also benefit from refurbishment. The underbody appears solid, with no standout issues noted.

Zustand gesamt
An ideal winter project for someone with a little time and mechanical knowledge. Most of the required repairs are relatively straightforward, and the car has been valued accordingly, taking the known faults into consideration. A great opportunity to improve the car over the winter and have an enjoyable Corvette ready for the summer.
