Well its sort of new to me. Bought it May, had it for 3 weeks then i had to leave it at home whilst i return to Afghanistan until Oct! Its been looked after by Aston Martin at Newport Pagnell whilst i have been away but will be back with the other half in the next few days then hopefully she will be driving around the Verwood, Ringwood and Bournemouth area.
I was beginning to think they only came in black or grey, Like it in the red

Yes, Fire Red. Very few were made of that colour and spec. Ex Aston Martin factory owned car. Had a 911 before hand and have to say, from an experience point of view in the short time i have had it, its head and shoulder above the Porsche. Aston have had it since i went away to look at a fault i had. Had an email the other day to say that due to them doing some test runs with it, they have put a complete set of new tyres on so its all good to go when i get back. Porsche would of charged me for the tyres and the air that went in them!!! The red though does turn heads!

It's arrived!! Spent the day cleaning, polishing and waxing it, also spent a couple of hours polishing the exhaust, which has come up really well. Just got to polish the exhaust heat shield now...

Professional photos to follow, mobile photos for now!

Looking good, that's come up an absolute treat.

Not a new car, but a sneak peak at my new colour...

Afraid not.... Hope the new colour doesn't encourage any terrible names!

Looks so much nicer with those rear lights.

There is one of these cars, sans spoiler, in a recently-released film called 'The Rover' http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2345737/

Nothing as yet. Unsure if it will be LM or the 'ring again. Probably start planning near the end of the year.
