- If you want to be more Linq-like without creating a `ForEach` method:
- ````
- vehicles = vehicles
- .Select(
- v =>
- new Vehicle
- {
- Make = v.Make,
- VIN = v.VIN,
- Color = v.Color,
- HsRegistration = vinList.Contains(v.VIN)
- }
- ).ToList();
- ````
Here we're treating `Vehicle` and the list like immutable objects, and creating modified copies rather than mutating them.

- Can you make Vehicle a `record` rather than a `class`?
- ````
- record VehicleRecord
- {
- internal string Make;
- internal string VIN;
- internal string Color;
- internal bool HasRegistration;
- }
- ````
- If so you can simplify this to:
- ````
- vehicles = vehicles
- .Select(
- v => v with { HasRegistration = vinList.Contains(v.VIN) }
- ).ToList();
- ````
