Well done Mark welcome back to the fold. Put your name down for Eds July event and I will be able to admire it in the flesh and we can go and get a beer or two!

Now, now Phil. He' enjoying a weeks break but I am sure as soon as he is back he will be catching up with those who have been lucky enough to acquire cars whilst he has been away. Be ready!!!

Looking forward to seeing this car in the flesh Bins! The DBS is a stunning car and, without doubt, my car is going to feel low rent in comparison which will inevitably lead to a chat with the bank manager.......

See you soon,

Packerz

Packerz, I don't think there's anything remotely low rent about yours pal! Look forward to catching up soon, are you doing the Lynx CTP?

Diamond to Cubic Zirconia may be a good comparison....Don't think I'll make the CTP as that is in my block of days at work but would be good to catch up for a brew next time you are down. Last time I saw you was about four years ago mate.........

Well, a fair amount has happened since then! So, what can we do to tempt you over to the marque? I have lots of friends who between them cover the entire range for you to test drive..... wavey

..ah, some things never change! wink

Now, I did go and drive an Vantage V8S down at Grange of Exeter with a jolly nice chap called Lloyd. At the time, and not wishing to offend anyone, I didn't find it particularly engaging to drive (although it was a manual) and I was not blown away by the acceleration either.

However, it was drop dead gorgeous to look at, I didn't make the most of the test drive and if I'm truthful I was not in a position to change anyway. The strange thing is that I have this growing urge to own one and, yes, it will happen (you know me Bins) but not just now. Like I said, I'm looking forward to seeing the DBS and, in the future, being a part of what looks like a great club.....

Hi Molly, nice to see you're still monitoring things over here. Also good to see you're keeping Rob in check with the odd dousing.

Packerz, you'll struggle to get the Tq you're used to out of a V8. The V12, however, could be right up your Straße......
