After using the forums for help and advice over the years I thought maybe I should start actually posting.

Are there any know centenary drives or events for current owners?

Be great to be part of the Celebrations.

Presumably you're not an AMOC member. No matter, anybody can join in. Plenty of events here : http://www.amoc.org/

You could also look at the AML pages as well http://www.astonmartin.com/en/aston-martin-centenary

Hope it works not usually very good at this formatting stuff.

There is set to be a gathering of Aston's near Preston on Sunday May 19th.

So anyone local to that area can pop along.

That's also the day of the AMOC Concours in Greenwich if you are closer to that, and the day after the Bonham's auction at Newport Pagnell; the annual pilgrimage of many Aston fans.

I also saw on the AMOC forum that there will be a special display of DB5's to mark the 50th birthday - should be pretty special I would have thought.

If you are specifically after a centenary drive, we have 2 rallies:

1st September: Rally of 100 cars, particularly aimed at Aston Martins made at Feltham in the 50's but other Astons also welcome. Start at Hanworth Park in Feltham, Middlesex then to Aston Clinton for lunch, tea break at Ecurie Bertelli (Aston Specialist), finishing with Cream Tea at Works Service, Newport Pagnell. £75 to include lunch and tea for driver + 1 passenger.

3rd August: Rally of 100 cars, starting at Stoke Park, Buckinghamshire (featured in Goldfinger film) and ending at Wilton House, Wiltshire. £60 to include breakfast and lunch. This is part of an Aston Martin weekend - you can also join us for a Champagne Tea at Wilton House in the afternoon and their Classic and Supercar Show on Sunday. On the Sunday, there will be a timeline of 100 Aston Martins and an additional display of all other Aston Martins who wish to come along. If you wish to be part of the timeline display, from the Bradsons booking page, you can see what models we are still after. Each of the 3 events are individually priced so you can do just the ones of interest.

Brands Hatch on 6th & 7th July will have so many Aston Martins in every corner of the circuit, that it would be well worth coming along to.

At all our other circuit meetings (Oulton Park, Donington, Snetterton) anyone with an Aston Martin are welcome to bring their cars to our Aston parking area and to go on the track parade (at no additional cost - just bring your driving licence)

Silverstone Classic has given the Club and AML a huge area. We currently have 150 Astons coming to the Club display. All those there on Saturday will also go on a parade lap, at no extra cost. You do need to be a Member to come on this one.

If you are a Club Member, we have discounts on many of our events eg Donington Historic Festival infield parking, Silverstone Classic, Brands Hatch. Details of how to apply to become a Member are available here: http://www.amoc.org/content/view/58/97/
