Took the winter cover off.

Nothing particularly remarkable about that.......

Got the winter cover back in its bag, now that’s remarkable!

Great to see someone really enjoying their day!! Congratulations

[rovcallum]

Fitted new front pads (EBC red stuff) - old Pagids were still OK but too much dust.
Broke wear sensor end (it crumbled away, honest) - to be ordered & replaced shortly.


Cleaned & refitted front wheels.

Replaced pollen/cabin filters.


Replaced engine air filters.


Next on the list is replace the front tyres (originals from 2009), starting to crack.

[Beechburn]

scary tyres - should have done these first :-) Go for MPS4S

[rovcallum]

These were signed off as fit for purpose at the last service less than a year ago........by AM.
Car is currently off the road and getting plenty of TLC over the Winter.

Took the car for a spin down the nearby dual carriageway. May not sound exciting but not been able to drive it for 8 months due to chemo effects. Great to be back in the fold. Just need to get back to a more spirited style.

Sorry to hear about that Fay and hope your recovery is going well. Great that you are back in the Aston!

Just got one of these to keep the Astons company...



LOTS of tech...wow! My wife absolutely loves the spaceship look inside, and so do I. It may have the same 25o HP motor as my Evoque and same basic trans, but it drives worlds better, especially the auto change down/up when almost coming to a stop. So far, two big thumbs up!

Nah, too much ice, snow, salt on the roads. Let 'em sleep...

Funny though, the dealership also flogs Jags. While I was waiting around, had a look at one of the F types on the floor. Salesman: "Wouldn't you like to be in one of those?" Me: "Too rich for my blood."

I ought to be able to answer your question.
I have seen lots of vehicles looking like that, parked outside schools.
Think it might be called a Land Cruiser, or perhaps it is a Jeep something.

I cannot ask a school mum, because they think their cars are called Bentayga.
