Hi wavey

Is there any margin in having an Aston spotted thread in a similar way that a number of other marque forums do?

tbh I meant spotted whilst out and about rather than a photo thread...

Just an idea!

Just pop a couple of these in the boot and block spaces off either side, much cheaper than a dinged door.

Right!!

Just got back from the Continent: 1,942 miles at 22.7mpg at an average speed of 48mph. Fuel: more expensive in France and Germany than Blighty ...but WAY cheaper in Luxembourg!

Route: Buckingham Palace - Canterbury - Bruges - Koblenz - Wurzburg - Fussen - Badenbaden - Luxembourg - Gosnay - Home

Spotteds:

- Sat July 30th - light/mid blue V8V in Austria. Near the German/Austria border - we were heading fr the Zugspitze, late morning

- Mon Aug 1st - 2 smile - a V8V followed by a Rapide, both in Luxembourg (city). Both silver/grey...I got a better look at the Rapide and it looked meteorite to me

- Today - Reading Services at 1.00pm. Light blue DB9 parked in front of us. Reg __54 KEV (I think it looked like 'Yes 4 Kev' from memory). Chap exchanged polite waves at us

And that was it!! In the best part of 2 weeks smile

Saw at least 5-6 Ferrari's in London alone (common rolleyes...hehe ) and quite a few muscle cars on the Continent (Mustangs, Pontiacs, etc) as well as plenty of Masers and Ferrari's.

Car is minging and will be getting a bath tomorrow smile

Now for some decent bitter beer
cheers
