its a really odd feeling i cant quite describe, owning the aston is much more than "owning an aston" its the kids that stop and point, the the old men doddering down the street that stop and smile, its the bhy little comments from middle aged wilmslow women who dont like the fact a girl half thier age drives a car they would dream to have.

Its the events, its the super car meets and standing back watching complete strangers admire your machine and have thier kids stand next to it for a photo, its knowing that the boots full of crap and the glove box stuffed with empty sweet wrappers.

Its the people you meet, the forums you use and the experiences that money cant buy (well it can, it comes at the price of owning an aston)
