Hi everyone,

I'm Mike and I live in England in the UK. I used to own a 1979 Trans Am but it needed far more money and time putting into it than I had, so it had to go. That was 6 years ago and I'd been patiently waiting since then for the right Camaro to come along.
It finally came along August 2011, not only was it black on black leather (my favourite colour) but it is also a 2002 SS.

I am so pleased my patience paid off.

Cheers,

Mike.

Is it possible to upload pictures other than with photobucket?

**KahanaReef** · 09-30-2011, 03:08 PM

Photobucket is what most of us use. You don't have much room uploading to the site. Hosting through PB or another hosting site is best.

Welcome to the site. I was in the UK back in 2005-ish. Loved it there. Stayed in Doncaster most of my stay, but also got to visit London and York. Hope to make it back out there again sometime on my own personal time, not work related.

Good looking car!

There aren't many Camaros at all in my area and mine being an SS is even more rare.

I have noticed that there's a 35th Anniversary LE (as above). Mine however, has a badge on the dash indicating that it's just a 35th Anniversary but not a Limited Edition. Is this a genuine car or has a previous owner just been deceiving themselves?

I bet the price of fuel in the UK gave you a shock.

All the 2002 models came with the 35th Anv plaque on the dash regardless of whether it was a standard model or LE.

Yes, the gas prices there were a real eye opener. Driving on the street was interesting also
