Just £60,000 will buy you the 7-litre V8-engined Chevrolet Corvette Z06 complete with 511bhp, a top speed of nearly 200mph and a neck-snapping 0-62mph time of 3.9 seconds. UK buyers will have to put up with left-hand drive only, but that price still makes the Corvette a bit of a bargain, especially when you take into consideration that the engine is hand-built. The Z06 goes on sale throughout Europe in December.
