[VIDEO] Clive the Corvette Goes to the Arctic Circle During 5500-Mile Road Trip

Surrounded by some of the most awe-inspiring natural scenery in the world, Clive the red C6 Corvette just made his way to the top of the world in his latest adventure.

Clive’s owner, David, shares the trip on his YouTube channel, along with his friends Felix, Marc, and Joe, and reports that the car suffered from absolutely no mechanical problems, despite showing a whopping 235,224 miles on the odometer at the end of the 5,500-mile trip to the Arctic that made its way through eight countries and three time zones.

Setting out as CSCC pace car at Silverstone, England, Clive eventually made his way to the most northerly city in the world (Hammerfest), the most northerly highway (E69), and the most northerly race track (Arctic Circle Raceway), where they were even allowed to join a 12-hour endurance race for three laps.

While living in the U.K., David first became enamored with the C6 Corvette while on a US vacation and then got the idea to buy one in America and take it on a road trip across the western United States before having the car shipped to England. Once in England, the car begins its transformation into the weekend racer we saw in the first video, while David continued documenting his road trip adventures with the car in Europe and Northern Africa.

As with previous adventures with Clive, the latest trip to the Arctic will be remembered in the fourth “Clive the Corvette” children’s book that will be available through the National Corvette Museum’s online store, the latest chapter due to arrive in early 2025.

Fortunately, we still haven’t heard the last of Clive, who looks much younger than his 235,000 miles and has lots more adventures left in his tank. Indeed, David says the team is already planning the next Corvette adventure for next year. We can’t wait!
