Two Astons spotted in Sheffield today. This morning on my walk into work there was a black Vantage, V8 I think, heading down to the Uni roundabout. Then this afternoon on the way home a blue DB9 reg 35 WA on the ring road heading past the old Hendersons factory. Be good to meet up with these guys if they're local.

A day for spotting Rapides! A grey Rapide S in the Kingston Centre by Milton Keynes and then another one at the Bicester Outlet Centre... All on my way to Millwork for a spin in a Vantage V12 S. Clearly they are far too common laugh

Got a wave from a fellow V8 Vantage driver on Queens Rd, Aberdeen this evening. Dark blue 09 plate, I believe... anyone on here?

I rarely see any Aston's on the road where I live in Devon. If I am lucky I might see maybe one a week on average, (usually a DB9 or Vantage) and I do a lot of miles around the County with work etc. And in the nearly 2 years I have owned my 'lowly' i6 DB7, I have only ever seen 2 other 7's on the road in that time!

Just seen a beautiful DB7 V12 PCx along Sevenoaks High Street in Kent. Not sure of the colour but looked to be a very deep blue, possibly purple. Car was a real credit to the owner. Cheered me up on a miserable grey morning. clap

I said 'Lowly' a bit tongue in cheek. But they are probably seen as maybe the 'lesser' of the Aston's, although I think the 7 is probably the best looking of the 'modern' Aston's.

Casino Royale (I think) DB9.2/Virage Volante pulling off M25 at Westerham. Talk about road presence!

I saw JET 2 today. I was on my way to Goodwood around 1:15pm heading east along the Chichester bypass and spotted what I initially thought was an "odd looking Vanquish" (paperbag) coming the other way, bimbling along in the inside lane. Nice to see it out in the fresh air.

A silver Vantage in Chester at around 10AM this morning with a plate that started V1 something I think.

Did anyone see the black LHD 1-77 on the north bound jammed M1 at Northampton , about 4.30pm ? Bizarrely I know the owner well but did not know he was there. I tried to warn him there was 20 miles solid in front of him but he could not hear the phone. I guess he is still there or now in the pub recovering. I gather they are quite a raw driving experience

Black Virage in Berkhamsted today. It's cleanliness was the polar opposite of the Heathrow Vantage!
