It is with regret.......
Discussion
Well Ladies and Gentlemen,
There comes a time when ownership must come to an end and I've reached that point. I have had an almost indescribably good time with my Vantage, a car which I still adore but simply do not have time to use. For anyone contemplating ownership., there is only one thing to say......your life will be forever touched by the brand.
Moreover, I'd like to thank the forum and in particular a certain group of friends that have become very close over the years, and I'd like to think that friendship will continue regardless.
Keep up the banter, try to avoid the public humiliation but most of all drive safe and well.
Ciao,
Bincenzo

Sorry to hear that you are leaving.
It is remarkable how a collection of metals, composites, leather and rubber, put together into a powerful beautiful shape, can have such an effect on us.
At least you have been able to experience the passion and enjoyment, and you clearly like your cars to be driven as much as possible. Perhaps you will return to Aston Martin one day.
Good luck. Now I just have to find a set of your Sports Pack wheels.

All the best Bins... I bet it's like splitting up from your first real girlfriend ?
Tell me about it, I'm devastated
Seriouosly though, it's been a pleasure, we all have our own brand of bullsh*t and yours has been as good as any. Owning these cars allows us to meet some great people and develop friendships, which will continue despite the make of keyfob in your back pocket.
If I sell the V12V you can have first dibs

I'd imagine so, but I've never really experienced that......I married my first girlfriend and we're still together 25 years later. Gutted I'm not sleeping with Jeff anymore though, I used to enjoy feeding him biscuits.....

In a very small way, you've spoiled my Sunday,,,hope you're satisfied. There comes a time when ownership must come to an end and I've reached that point.

Fortunately AMR took 1st place in both Pro an AM classes at the Spa WEC yesterday,,,,,so some comfort there.
More seriously, as others have commented, enjoyed the banter and at times appreciated your mediation skills.
Blue skies Mark.
