Just amazing - the little details add up to absolutely stunning cars.

Do I spot some special red Aston overalls beneath the helmet docks ????

Well spotted. There will be 2 x helmets and 2 x race suits in each car. Red suit for driver and Blue for the passenger in keeping with the team.

Without a doubt the best AML "special" to my mind, the details on the car are spectacular, some very lucky people are going to own these. Good luck to all the raffle entrants too.

The RAF are reforming 601 Squadron and inviting prominent business leaders to join the Volunteer Reserve & join the Squadron. Here is Group Captain Andy Palmer, standing next to the completed Red 10 in No. 5 Uniform, further cementing the links between Aston Martin, the RAF Benevolent Fund and the RAF. Brilliant IMHO!!

Red 10 is currently in the Atrium at Gaydon awaiting dispatch to us next week, so if you happen to be there you might get a sneak peek!

Thanks all, it was an epic day, all ran to plan, fortunately the weather behaved! Looking forward to a rest now, after three special projects, back to back, I’m taking 2018 off and just running a dealership for a year! Might dip back in with another project in 2019 though.....

Congratulations Simon on bringing this huge project together with many beneficiaries - not least of all the owners of these fabulous cars who must’ve had an incredible experience, not just on the day but throughout the whole journey.
A wonderful way to support others.
