I'm not an AMOC member (yet). Would like to turn up on the day - Does anyone know if there will be any special non-AMOC AM parking area?

Jazzybee - there will be just one parking area for all Astons, you are very welcome to come and park there.

Yes, Bonhams at Works on saturday. Make sure you get a look around the Heritage workshop area. We tend to do Sunnyside carpark in the morning (lots of Aston's parked up there), and then the car auction action starts early afternoon. it's our yearly sabbatical smile

Unfortunately it can't make it now.



Engine fire on flight practice for tomorrow. The aircraft is ok.

Bugger. I was really looking forward to that. Oh well, plenty of Astons to drool at should help make things better.

Great day out with plenty of cars to admire and a Spitfire thrown in for good measure………..scratchchin

Brilliant to catch up with so many people for a chat and to marvel at their pride and joy's,just inspiring how well these vehicles look all parked together.

LD the dream machine looked amazing, you should be very proud of that one.

Tony your just the ultimate in Fanny Magnets……good to see you mate,sorry I forgot the Cake.

Ian and Maureen the Flugsplatz Blue was spectacular out in the Sun,mega cool……….just sorry I couldn't display Little Norman today who's still off sick………..:big laugh:

Really enjoyed today and to all I spoke too………….smile

Right lets find out who's won what clap.
