Mate travelling to US and is going to pick me one up. Anyone else interested?

I have one of these for my V8V that I bought about 3 years ago, and it is excellent. It is extremely well made. Highly recommended for the rare days that I leave my car parked outside in the scorching Melbourne heat.

You know you can buy one like that for less than £10 in the UK

Not tailored though.

You can get them in different sizes. I have one which fits well into my three different sized cars.

Also, should be able to get it before the SUN goes out again in the UK

Obviously you haven't seen the one from CarID. These two things are not even in the same galaxy as far as quality. The one from CarID is rigid, tailor-made to the Aston and is by far the best built sunshade I have ever seen. Those crinkly, flimsy, aluminium foil, one-size-fits-none pieces of crap from Halfords have no business inside an Aston.

Needs eyes.....



i know this is just an excuse to recycle this photo, but i don't care

I like the one with eyes best

seriously $60 is crazy...I bought one from halfords for under a tenner prior to a LeMans trip in 2006 ...it still lives in the boot now for those hot days....saves the leather on the dash and keeps the car cooler

You could always just park under a tree

Not a good idea, tree sap ,bird droppings,leaves and twigs.
I just dangle my mother in laws knickers,she thoughtfully embroidered the AMOC logo on the arse.

Yep, got a cheapy after the Marcos windscreen split at Le Mans one morning as it gets hot so quickly. A cheapy is fine!

$60 is not quite as crazy as £85 for a 2 inch long leather glass key holder.......

I'm assuming no more orders so will get my Paypal fired up so he can just collect it all paid for. Will post pics when it gets here (and the summer is over no doubt)
