Marque expert David Smitheram covers every model, from the most attainable 2005 LS2 coupes and convertibles, to the wide-bodied Grand Sport and Z06, through to the late-model ZR1 supercar and a multitude of special editions.

The author maintains and modifies his own C6, nicknamed ‘Clive The Corvette’. Steadily approaching 250,000 miles, his 2007 C6 Coupe sees almost daily use, has won track championships and enjoyed long-distance road trips across the USA, Europe and Africa.

David Smitheram lives in the South West of England, and is currently the Director of a motorsport organising club. Previously he founded a business filming cars on the race track, qualified as an ARDS race instructor and worked for a Japanese manufacturer. Over the past 20 years, David has taken part in well over 250 track days and races around the world, in at least twenty different marques. David bought a Corvette C6 in California, driving it 2500 miles in the States, before shipping it back to the UK. 'Clive The Corvette' has now travelled more than 230,000 miles on road and track, in the US, around Europe, down to the North Africa and the Sahara Desert and up to the Arctic Circle. These journeys have produced a series of children’s books about 'Clive The Corvette'. David carries out all maintenance and upgrades on his cars himself. His articles, videos and photographs have been used by various car clubs, magazines and publications.
