I can remember being told, "Christian Horner and Adrian Newey were sitting in those seats a week ago. V12 Vantages."
It was at a car showroom, Lancaster Aston Martin Reading in 2011.

Interesting that he has retained that car. We all know why.

Wonder if Lawrence Stroll will insist in future, that he is seen in an 'ultra luxury' model and not that old fashioned manual gearbox car? smile




I have just noticed that the original front number plate plinth is still in place.

I remember this article from The DM many years ago not long after V12VS was launched. As they often say in sport…form is temporary, class is permanent. smile

Not too many of the original six speed cars for sale nowadays. BRM.

I'll bet you wont see Horner driving his much nowadays. But he'll probably keep it, as the Austrians' patience won't be limitless and he's got no skin in the company (unlike Wolff....and Newey)
