Hi All!
Just found this forum after having owned my Blazer for a few years, so I signed up and thought I'd say hello!
As you can probably guess from the thread title, I live in the UK and I'm very proud to own my Chevy, over here they're pretty unique and mine always gets a second glance from passers by
'k guys, catch you all soon!

Hey all, thanks for the warm welcome :)
I live in Devizes, which is a small town in Wiltshire. In all the time I've lived here I've only ever seen one other Blazer, every time we pass on the road we wave to each other but we've never spoken!

I visited the UK back in 1995. Stayed in London but we got around to a few other places.
I didn't realize they made a RHD version of the Blazer.

Hi
DevizesChris, nice to find someone from the UK, I am currently living in Oklahoma but I am from the UK, from a little village outside Nottingham, I had a few problems with the Blazer I just purchased but with the help from the people on this forum its sorted now.
How easy / difficult is it to find parts for the Blazer over there?

Hello ol' chap, welcome to the forum! Likewise... British cars tend to get an extra glance around here. If you're ever cruising around in an Aston or a Jaguar...you get some open mouths when you go by.

Well, originally when I was thinking about buying a blazer I was also unaware of a RHD version until I saw one in a preowned car dealership. As for finding parts, it can be fairly tricky at times but I know a couple of places I can order from, which has saved me more than once!

Aston Martins, yes. Jaguars, no. Jags have been breaking their own sales records for a couple years now and they're becoming more and more common. Now an old MG or Triumph...THAT will catch my attention!

Hi, I'm from the UK too (waves)
Our Blazer also gets second glances, especially when a girlie gets out of it!
Own it now for 1 1/2 years, love the car but it doesn't like the Cornish lanes much - a bit wollowy!
