I think AMWS and their new retail outfit has no legal association with AML at all anymore. It is an independent (EU Legistation) and franchised entity, albeit, with similar shareholders.

Didn't know that. Thanks for bring that to my attention. No reason to prefer WS over any dealer then?

Am I being dim here or is the original poster a plant for some private dealership advertising their company?

If so, you might think a little more of them if, according to their previous post, they knew how to use an apostrophe, could spell forty and didn't call second hand car dealers 'ambassadors'?

Some very weird older posts dating from the time of the forum visits to the factory! He/she claimed to have spotted that poor Neil1300 was a 'troublemaker' when he/she saw him. An oddball to be sure, but troublemaker..? smile

'Twas I who was the troublemaker, Lewis. Neil is a thoroughly upstanding bloke, and questioned the legitimacy of the OP even being there on the tour. Unlike yours truly, who is clearly a born anarchist rolleyes

According to the commentary, "owning an Aston doesn't make you a shareholder" and therefore precludes giving any feedback (90% positive) on a factory tour.

This was the factory that, incidentally, built my current and previous car, so I think I'm probably as entitled to an opinion as any. Not convinced the same could be said for the OP.

So come on MrAMnpg, state your connection to AM and the motives for your bizarre and grammatically inept postings.

Or come along to the next meet in Oct, and we can all shake hands over a pint.

Trying, Phil!

We had planned to go to Morocco for a week around this time. Currently undergoing the not-inconsiderable-task of convincing her to cut it short for a blat on the moors. Am quietly confident smile

Or I may let her go on her own, which would leave me to try my luck with a flame-haired beauty I spotted in Hereford wink

Although word on the street is she likes her men with a "real engine" cry

Now, it's not nice to pick on Neil is it? Troublemaker indeed...

Ah, in which case I see his/her point. You're obviously a potential nutjob Adam smile
