Poor negletic Am.

[SirVandru]

Hey all not been here for a while.

Just thought I would give you a update on my 2006 AMV8.

Basicly ever since I got a A45 AMG in Sept 2013 the poor fella has been sitting on the drive waiting to be driven.

I do try to take it out every now and then to simple hear the V8 clear its lungs but I just cant stop picking the AMG keys up.

What do you think time to sell?

[mjk1]

No, just try a trip to Specsavers!

[V8 Animal]

Had to Google what it is.
It's a hot hatch daily car it's hardly a Aston.
Maybe you should sell and move on.

[divetheworld]

It is time to sell....... To get a 4.7 >2009 model. Your hot hatch will be consigned to trips to B&Q and getting baby sick on the upholstery.

[dredders]

Definitely time to sell





[the Merc.]

[brakedwell]

Go green, sell 'em both and get a Prius

Some interesting comments but expected I suppose.

Its just that the A45 is so god dam good guys it really is. Its speed is so insane I don’t think a 4.7 would be enough off a step up to compensate. I think the only way to solve this would be a V12 or maybe a MP12... (but the wife would defiantly kill me if I relocated £150k out of the house found)



I defiantly need my head examined. I mean look at that OTT aero on the A45, I should hate it but I just love the way you feel like a mini DTM racer every time you slip into the amazing Recaro seats and grab hold of the Alcantara steering wheel.

The other thing I was thinking was maybe starting a car rental company and using the Am as the founding car, then again I was also thinking about converting it into a GT4 track car. Oh the options.

Thinking about it I dont think I will sell up I just cant do it to the poor Am.

Bin the Aston, you obviously have no interest in it. It's a car, not a person. Let someone else enjoy it before it gets in a state through not being driven and throws up some big bills.

If was was still a 17 year old scally I'd be all over that Merc.

Thankfully I grew up, hence the Aston.

The Aston Martin looks great, but I think your photograph could have been better.

There is some sort of small hatchback car in the foreground, spoiling the view of the Vantage.

I don't know what the white hatchback is, there are so many these days,
and they all look the same to me. ->

Yes, time to sell the A-Class if not being used, but after less than 6 months ownership, Ouch £ !

The front bit of that white thing looks a bit like one of those horrible new jags.

[triple5]

You’re just going through a bit of a crisis having had all that work done on the house, new front window, front door?

Keep em both, there’re both great cars. Love the pops and bangs from the A45.
