Yesterday, sold the Vanquish. I'll miss it, special bit of kit.

Was that a gen 1 or 2?

Sorry to see you go. Another passionate stalwart leaves the fold :-(
Are you planning on getting another one, or moving to something different? Your posts will be very much missed, as they are always detailed and informative.

Best Regards

You're too kind
I have something in the pipeline, but it's not something that this forum would appreciate, so it's a farewell for now

Gen II, early 6 speed.

Carried on playing with ride height etc on new suspension
Deciding how stiff I can stand it lol

Not today but last weekend, took a lovely drive with some friends out toward Towcester from Buckingham. Really nice day for it. Also lent my V12V and a couple of my other toys to Jayemm on cars a few weeks ago, so that'll pop up sometime on YouTube.

Nice collection of cars!

I was tempted to loan my car to JayEmm too, interested to see what he thinks has he had a V8V recently.

Can’t wait to get back out and about again - been SORNd two months , roll on 1st July.

think he has done a couple of V8V, not the S model though. He did my DS19 recently, and has done my V12V and the 599 so those videos to come. Don;t think he was a particular fan of the V12V

Agreed a deal on this....

[DB9newbie]

Took my DB9.2 for a spin around the garden - the furthest it has been driven in months.

Excellent! They give excellent value and are such a great drive! Is it Lightning Silver? Very low maintenance if so!

You'll never get it back over that bridge again!

Really? well, they drive better than a 550 Maranello!

I have to agree, although I've never owned a 550 and only driven one twice. I have a 456 which is a lovely car, but prefer the V12V, hands down! I guess we will see when he puts the video live. Think the 599 one comes today or this week.

Just joined today. Already know now, more than I knew!

Trying out a set of black wheels (as opposed to the original silver lightweights) and new 4S tyres (previously corsas).

If I keep them I need to sort out some tyre pressure sensors as I’m running without them at the moment

The weather perfect, the lockdown easing, long overdue 20 mile spirited sortie,,,, so good to hear those webers popping and exhaust crackle (couldn't hear a damn thing for the next 2 hours though).

Totally stunning, the envy of the whole forum for sure! Great to see you getting some miles in! Enjoy

[AdamV12V]

Took both the Aston's (sounds good to say that ) to the first meet up with some of the guys since lockdown. All strictly socially distanced of course!

Loving that rapide!

Not only a stunning car but I also spy a koi pond in the back ground! Thinking of covering mine like you have done yours to keep the sunlight off!
