"Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful" - ok it was said in reference to the v12 but this is my first Aston and it seemed appropriate to me. I'm still expecting a rude awakening, it feels very surreal to think that little old me has an Aston smile

She's taken the name Rosie, the iPhone "shuffle" gods put the Rolling Stones - Doom and Gloom on, before rolling into the next track, AC/DC - Whole lotta Rosie, given the association between the Rose name and Aston as well as the red interior it made sense. (Apologies if someone else has called their car Rose)

Anyway, here are some of the worst quick snaps you will ever see. I literally had to park, 30 seconds to take pics and run off again, I didn't even check the SLR's settings just the light meter, also parked in direct sunlight, never good. I'll get some better ones over the festive period.

I have never had a car as special as this biggrin

^ yes, It was possibly the worst weekend to have picked the car up. The roads were awful. She'll be getting some good tlc this weekend smile (if I sober up)

Grant, you and your book have made me spend £17k more than I intended. The best £20 on a book to this date. The extra smiles from researching (/geeking) and getting exactly what I wanted first time out are priceless! Thankyou.
