Pretty sure I saw your car at the Mercedes dealership near Southampton Airport this morning on my way to work!

Hi RIB27.... you saw absolutely right.... picking up a Smart car on Thursday as a run around (can't wait to have the sheer power of a 778 cc diesel engine)!!! I was also out in the Forest on Saturday- beautiful day! I think I have seen you around and waved a couple of times..... I live near Lymington...

I'm also on the lookout for a new runaround at the moment and people have been suggesting a Smart - just think of all that fuel economy!

Lymington is a very nice place to be - I often find myself down that way on the weekends so will look out for you.

Got to be honest, the Smart isn't bad- a hell of a lot bigger inside that it looks... My other hobby is motorbikes and I still find it strange that all 3 of my bikes have bigger engines than the Smart!!... but what the hell, for ultimate pleasure the AM. For a quick nip here and there, plus a bit of commuting the Smart... Suits me Sir.

If you fancy a bit of a whiz during the summer in the AMs, pm me..

That is a very cool photo. At least it would be if the plinth had been removed. Spoils a work of art

[redkite]

OK ... no plinth in this one.

[lady topaz]

Not a lot of petrol either

Lovely photo's though.

Newly arrived today, I am one happy Boy!

The V8 Vantage of that era is (hyperbole aside) my favourite ever car. I love 993s too, but the classic big brute Aston with its heavy ZF manual 'box is the way to go.

[lady topaz]

That is beautiful. I think you should announce this on the main page. Too lovely to be overlooked.

Congratulations on a gorgeous acquisition.

Nearly as filthy as Jockmans

Looks clean to me mate.

That's not a scratch, the car's British so it's a Kitemark.
