Took it to BR and finally (now that Spring is here - WTF) got my (new to me - thanks Steveway) V12V wheels and summer tyres fitted to my Vantage S. No, I'm not trying to make it look like a V12, I've just always loved these wheels. Adrian then took me out and showed me what properly warmed up Corsas can do despite a damp/wet road and ambient temperature of about 7 degrees. OMG - I thought I could drive my car OK but this was on a different level. Thanks Adrian, something to work on

If anyone wants my old V-spoke wheels (black diamond cut) with part worn V8S size Bridgestones then just PM me.

You’ll be getting a v12v bonnet next....lol

Since I'm making the rules up here I'm going to say that that would indeed be a step too far so I won't be doing it.

Looks like the border control boys have found a stash secreted in the car and laid out the photographic evidence for all to see

No work today, went into garage, sat with a beer and just looked at car

Looking magnificent, see you at Biggin Hill!

I had the Expel self healing full front clip installed with paint correction and CilaJet coating along with 11mm wheel spacers installed and replaced the Piano Black Ski Slope with Tamo Ash all during the 10,000 mile inspection by Morries Aston Martin in Minneapolis.

I have the original perfect condition Ski Slope if anyone is interested PM me.

Today, I swapped out a headlight to repair my duff LED sidelight. Essentially simple...actually A PIG!!

But sorted now, MOT on Monday

[Composer62]

Spring clean today. Can't help thinking that I own a ridiculously good looking car !

Next to the new stable mate

Had a little run over the Dales, so did a few passes of the Cat and Fiddle.

Dropped it off at Bamford Rose for the decat and power upgrade...... I don't normally wish my life away but roll on Thursday.

Entered the V8V into the Celebration Exotic Car Show in Celebration, Florida this past weekend in aid of "Make A Wish" charity and very happily got a Platinum Prize for my Beautiful Aston Vantage V8

Finally got a few minutes to get started on my grey V8V. Drained my oil catch can...



Last drain was almost exactly a year ago. It contained ~160ml last time:



Replaced my cabin filters, too. About to do my engine oil, gear oil, brake fluid, etc etc, plus pull my rear bumper (finally) to fix a couple issues a shoddy body shop left me with. (I'll be shooting video of that!)
