Hi Guido,

I work on Great Pulteney Street (I think you hold the Beak-to-Brewer St record down here smile) so often see your car around, mainly when drinking in the Sun & 13 Cantons beer

Will keep an eye out and say hi if I see you "with car".

Adam
Hi Adam, I live in soho but work elsewhere, so chances are you will mainly see me on my way back from work (assuming you don't work weekends).
By all means, next time you're in the Sun & 13 cantons and hear me coming (shouldn't be too difficult whistle), give me a wave and I'll stop to say hello!

Four today all within a few miles of each other in the hertford, welwyn, ware area. Two V8V coupes, one Roadster........and a V12 Vantage which looked absolutely stunning and sounded like two planets coliding.

Do you know I'd never clocked that.
Why did they stick that POS on the front of the Vantage then? (and yeah I know it's got 4 fewer cylinders!)

The DB9 cross section that the plate sits on is much larger than the Vantage one, Pedro - by a good inch or so.

Perhaps they deemed it unnecessary on the DB9 because the whole plate could be fitted securely to this section confused
