I read the thread a few weeks ago but forgive my ignorance as an irregular visitor to the Aston area - I saw an Aston with a bonnet stripe going southbound on the M40 yesterday at around 1100. Was it one of you three?

I know it wasn’t me, one is out of the country and the other hasn’t been collected yet whistle

Most AMR cars have been delivered now so it was probably one of those. Sorry Silverspeed and NeinFondue smile

Are we talking about a totally new model range or just a track special?

So today was the day - rubbish weather but that wasn’t going to stop me . It seems like we started this journey years ago .....just a minute we did .
Thanks to Ian and Jonathan for their support and great friendship during the brilliant journey we have been on . Thanks to Aston Martin for making it happen and to the guys at Aston Martin Nottingham - it’s been challenging along the way but so worth it . Good things do come to those that wait .
The whole world knows our story so other than to say, in a very self indulgent way ,the car is wonderful wonderful wonderful ( still one if the best TG episodes ever) and posting a few photos of my car I think for the 3 AMRigos this might be the end of this story.. There again it might not !

Thanks for the comments. Don't know why some of the Orange accent colour has come out yellow in the pictures . Must have been contaminated by Ian's car wink
