I'm afraid my +1 has had to cancel - but that does take it to 35.

For some reason my + 1 looked like I was down twice.

Have corrected.....should be right now

Mike

[mikey k]

See you all at 10:30 in the morning!

[roocarl]

Looking forward to tomorrow and meeting you guys as a newbie I don't know any other Aston owners , I just finished giving the car a little clean before it went dark just need to remember to put some Petrol in it now :-)

[Y100]

Have a great day everyone,,,,so wish we could have been there.

[speech]

My +1 can't make it now unfortunately, but I'm on my way!

[StephenP]

Big thanks for organising this Mike.

Excellent and very enjoyable day out!

[Baron Von Alders]

Adding my thanks Mike.

3 hours on the tour was more than I was expecting, partly because I hadn't imagined the number of Prodrive buildings on the estate.

A great day out and the M40 & M25 even behaved themselves

[thetees]

Got back to civilisation ok.
Thanks again to Mikey for organising the trip.
I wonder if they discover any missing wheels/tyres/brake pads come Monday morning!

[MollyGTi]

Thanks for organising this Mikey. A memorable occasion and extra special once we realised that Prodrive are about to move from their famous spot alongside the M40!

The lovely lady who took us on the Prodrive tour is Jackie Irwin. Her knowledge of all things Prodrive is brilliant and you have to love her enthusiasm for the subject!

Some photos:





The foyer is full of winners



Ready to go racing



Rob & Mikey consider weight-saving options for their Vantage S's



Hope to see this one in action soon



Follow that with a pub lunch and my turn to drive and the job's a good'un

At least a couple of people missed out - where were you Williamp & ShropshireAston? Hope you turn up in Wales next month

Come on then - who else has photos to share?

[thetees]

Its probably just me but...why has Rob got his face plastered on the side of this car?...

[J12MOC]

Second all that Molly..thanks Mikey ..really enjoyable few hours. No photos I'm afraid as Mona had my phone.
