On the train down to collect the car...finally.

After 20 years of buying high performance cars I still can't sleep the night before.

Congratulations! What a great way to start the weekend.

I didn't sleep well the whole week before picking mine up last year, mind you - it was close to Christmas too wink

Also my favourite Aston and all time cars, it's absolutely stunning. Enjoy and I'll keep my eye out as I'm also in Manchester.
