If you're a fan of the Chevrolet Corvette and/or Camaro and haven't already bought one (or both), then you'd better act fast - assuming you live in the UK or mainland Europe. The UK's Motoring Research has kindly posted a reminder that neither Chevy sports car will be available new in the island nation after August 31, 2019 because of new EU emissions rules. The 6.2-liter small-block LT1 V8 that powers both is the culprit. Only V8-powered Camaros are imported.

There is just one authorized dealer who sells both cars new in the UK, Ian Allan Motors of Virginia Water. As we all know, the C7 Corvette is about to be permanently retired but we don't yet know whether its C8 successor will meet those strict new emissions regulations. Chances are it will. Unfortunately, the Camaro is not in the same situation. The sixth-generation Camaro won't be replaced anytime soon. Its most recent update was for this year.
