With apologies to the Aston forum I thought this thread might be appropriate for those looking to post what they do with their cars apart from trying to predict value.The more posts with pictures the better.
I'm ashamed to say to kick it off that all I've done today is planned a drive in the Speciale to Cornwall next week.Post with pictures will follow.

Countach is in the body shop, so it's time to take the wraps off the 308 and Esprit for a sunny afternoon drive

No offence taken by the Aston Martin folks biggrin
Here's what we did with our supercars:

a drive to Shelsey Walsh Breakfast Club "in extreme muck and ice" - that's what life is all about. All cleaned up and looking new tonight...

Another one for Shelsley Walsh here! Took the Aventador bit slippy this morning a lot better on the way home. All nice and clean wrapped up now!

Thought I'd take the 308 out for a run since it was such a nice day.

Unfortunately despite behind on a conditioner the battery was knackered, so trip to Halfords, new battery installed and time for a run up into the Peak District.

Once up there conditions were not as good as expected!!!

All good fun though.

Waxed I hope, not polished.....polish is an abrasive process whereas waxing is a protectant.

Thought about it, thought about collecting it from storage, thought about driving over the highlands at the weekend, then remembered I have to pack to move house next month and don't have time! frown

Middle of March onwards I will spend every weekend racing or driving around aimlessly smilesmile

I feel ashamed reading some of these. I took mine out of the garage, warmed it up for 15 minutes, took it for a 0.5 mile drive around our unsalted residential estate and put it back in the garage frown
