Burghley 2016 - Video & Andy Palmer chat.

[Ken Figenus]

Given the remarkable effort by Ed50 in putting together such a fabulous weekend back in July below is a link to a short video memento of the day that we had promised to produce.

The video is based around a chat with Andy Palmer who was enjoying the day as much as any of us. [Extra Q&A at the end for true Aston geeks on his first 18 months at Aston, Gearboxes and Rapide's!]

Thanks once again to Ed and to everyone who helped raise the staggering £46k for charity

Great video. Thank you.
It seemed to me that he has a genuine passion for the brand.

Agree with your sentiments James and I think you need only see the twinkle in his eye when he starts talking about his classic V8 Vantage to see the enthusiasm; he's a lot like us

Thanks for the other positive comments chaps on what was a very quickly produced vid

Great video.

Though you may want to edit out when the poor chap says "Nissan" by mistake at 6.08.

Spot! But 'twas only a 'Nis'. Anyway Astons aren't fazed by a Micra or a Juke - not even a Nis(mo)

[Ken Figenus]

LOL - Nij '2 Astons' is in there I think - lots to cram in

[Ken Figenus]

Ahh gotcha - you'd only just had your Aston hadn't you? Hope you and your lovely wife are enjoying! Do sympathise on the confusing names/handles thing- not sure I get the balance right between keeping a bit of online privacy/distance and having a right old made up name lol

Great video and NeinFondue and my car were famous for 2 seconds

Was there a back end shot of you too Nick, with a steady wide stance...am I getting the right Nick here?
