.. but I don't think Aston will be that flattered by this hehe

Was just sent this link by my friend - http://www.carcorn.com/2011/03/17/aston-martin-dbs...

Yours for a mere $35k, with only 95k miles on the clock!





What the hell did he align the rear lights with too? In fact, what the hell was he thinking? Let's hope Aston do as Merc did with the 300SL replica and have it crushed smile

Awful frown

Shame as the early XK8 is actually a beautifully proportioned car. Ruined.

yes Those replicas based on ste cars like MR2s are bad enough, but to destroy a great looking car in the process, utter madness frown

It never ceases to make me wonder why people bother!!!!

I can see the fun side of kit cars in the form of the lotus 7's and other odd creations but i absolutley despise the Ferrari/MR2/Aston bolt on kits and so on, I often wonder what sort of W@NK3R would buy one of these things..

And the price of them is just a joke!!!!!

I found this nightmare in the PH classifieds

Sorry about the viruses thing, I too am on a Mac so didn't get any warning like that, plus the link was sent to me by a friend who just thought I'd like to see the horrible DBS replica. Is the 2nd link ok? smile

I'm going to update from a 2 to a 3 when I'm out in Singapore for the Grand Prix, it's much cheaper over there.

That would actually fool 95% of people at a glance I bet, but £22k?! Could have a real DB7 for that.

I want AM to follow Merc with this recent example - http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default.asp?storyI...
