Scared to put miles on an Aston ?

[t1blk]

Boll**ks to MPG and restricting your mileage, we have beautiful cars that want to be driven ,get out and enjoy it , love it , occasionally thrash it , and that goes for you too Jockman, beast it.

He can't reach the pedals.... Well not to push them all the way down anyway

I don't know, his feet seem to reach the brake pedal well enough on our run out to Gorgeous's, I thought it had a bad earth

Fair comment, matey.

I made Jocky Wilson look tall

When the Dealer used to take the car away to wash it under warranty it would always be returned with the seat MILES away from the steering wheel.

Thank heavens for memory seats

Well an Umpa-lumpah is far too statuesque so you must have been the stunt double for the transformed Mike TV.

Nope, that was my big brother Tim - he's much taller than me

[Jockman]

I shall also be reporting you chaps to the relevant authority - the Midget Gems - for your blatant dwarfist prejudice

Us Jock's use Irn Bru, made from Girrrrrderrrs

It certainly tastes like its made from Girders..... Rusty ones with pigeon st on em...... Rusty water tastes better

best speak with Jockman, you may have tried the "standard" stuff and not the Chateaux Barrs Premier Cru that is on limited release.

If you speak nicely to him he might let you have a wee dram

Is that the Irn Bru Firey stuff they released? That was fking horrible! I do like the standard one though.

I never even knew they made a Firey version

Ferrari do too. Something to do with sticky arches IIRC.

I don't ever drive my AM or Lotus to work because I don't want my coworkers to know I have them—too much resentment. Even so, I managed to put 10K miles on the AM in the past year. Cars are meant to be driven.

[jamespconnor]

I didn't really think about it when I got mine but I've managed to put 6,500 miles on it since 1st Feb. It went back to the dealer for some quirks last week and I got an astounded email from the salesman asking where I'd been in it!

Similar to earlier posts, I'm of the opinion that if I start thinking "Can I afford to take the Aston?" then I can't afford to own it. What's the point? It's not a mantle piece ornament, it's a car - a car's purpose is to be driven. Only except is if you owned multiple sports cars and could choose depending on your mood
