I didn't do anything with the Aston but I did modify the garage doors to reduce the squeaky bum factor when entering or exiting

I have a similar issue. About 10mm clearance on the near side of the car as I squeeze through the door opening.

However, to prevent touching the wall, I’ve installed a stainless steel ‘guide rail’ on the floor. I just nudge the tyre against the rail and I know that I then have decent clearance. You can just see it in this photo…

Wow!

Loving the obligatory planks of wood that we all seem to acummulate over the years.

JayEmm’s Aston day at Bamford Rose.

All in about 350 miles today, some of it wetter than ideal but lovely to be out and lovely to meet up with a few like minded souls.

And as you pile more and more wood up against the wall to make your garage even narrower you just move the rail further over

Popped to a coffee and cars event at Brooklands, organised by HWM. Good turn out of Astons and Catehams, despite the rain. Ended up with around 45 cars there.

I went too in the DBX. Lovely Lagonda parked up there.

A good turnout, I thought.

I’d not seen one before, though I understand only about 7 were made. I always think of the ‘wedge’ shaped one with the digital dashes when I think of Lagondas of that sort of era.

Our annual Vanquish day out . Around 20 cars up in Yorkshire . Great couple of days .

Great photo! Jealous. Raining again here this morning, so as the missus was away for the day, spent the day sorting out storage in the garage. At least she’s resting in much tidier space tonight!

DB12 looks beautiful. Great choice of alloys - they look terrific.

Well a few Vanquish owners headed to Yorkshire

I think my Vantage Roadster has been sneaking upstairs and eating pies whilst I sleep.



Look what happened!
