Welcome home
I like the irony of 17 mpg Astons, the currnet lack of fuel and your name wink
Best you stick to your name as soon as you pick it up smile

Congrats, I went from a DB7 Vantage to a DB9, takes a while to adjust to that 'modern' car feeling but the Gaydon cars are so well built.

Have been under my DB9 a lot today at Bamford Rose, they really are well made by comparison!

It's also the best sounding V8 out there probably smile

Thanks, I agree a totally different experience... a great drive home from Swindon to Lincolnshire ...and then a little cruise through the narrow streets of Stamford (not that I was showing off of course!)

Welcome back. Onyx is stunning (if I do say so myself smile). These are fantastic cars.
