That's the olden days John, it's all changed, get with the programme.

Only the men need beards now

I might park like a girl but...

I'm going to try to make it up from Bristol. Anyone else from this side heading there? My sister only lives a couple of miles from Brooklands, so means I can look like a good brother by popping up!

Just spoked to Brooklands, one of the AMOC regions is having their Christmas lunch there on Sunday!

It might mean the paddock outside the Clubhouse is full, but it'll still be full of other Astons which is nice! They can park 30 cars in there so we'll see who can park there, if not we just park in the paddocks alongside but we'll all be together.

Taking shape nicely, weather looks OK. Could be a nice day out, anyone know a decent route around some backroads nearby?

Know a few routes, depends how far people want to go.

You make it sound like a chore! Think of the sense of pride you will get when it's parked there gleaming

the more the merrier! Ask lots of questions. Assuming they are Aston questions not BMW questions.

You're very welcome Mark, it's always fun to meet new owners who are still blown away by the experience of ownership! You might learn what all the buttons do as well from the old hands...

Well to be fair it was the first one I looked at and it took me 10 minutes of test drive to fall in love so I know VERY little! BUT there do not appear to be many buttons or features at all compared to modern cars.... BUT who cares! It's beautiful sounds sexy and makes my face hurt with grinning! Who cares if it IS slower than M5! Never quite understood all of that when passing DB9s in the M5! Tonight I'm going to be a like an 8 year old on Christmas eve getting all excited! I will need some serious pharmacutilcals to sleep tonight!
