Rarely i use my Aston to commute to work but today i had to.
I turned into my trading estate and as i did a cyclist rode out of another junction and i couldn't avoid noticing him, he had a big smile on his face, he then began to nod knowingly,then said very nice mate very nice,and a thumbs up too.
All i could say was thank you and carry on.
Don't know who was pleased most.smile
Still buzzing about it now 4 hours later biggrin

On my Northants hoon Sunday we had a biker waving us all past. You could see him shouting in his helmet he was so excited to see us all

Cant beat it can you, although sometimes when your in your joggers and hoodie you just want to nip into the shop and out again.

One of my side-lines is commercial photography. I visited a client's warehouse the other day for a job, not thinking that it was the first time in the Aston. The 'boys' in the warehouse wen't nuts over it. It feels good but slightly embarrassing sometimes too. There is a lot of love for AM out there definitely.

I suspect he was swearing at the lunatics rushing past him in a wall of noise to be fair smile

Had mine 4 months and done 5k miles in mine, including 4 trips to work in Shoreditch and 5 or 6 drives to customer meetings (where I know the car won't be seen). It really does make the most mundane trips an event.
