Stratstone - Western Avenue

I drove past there this morning about 7.45 am, and I noticed that the cars were being brought out, one by one to display. It occurred to me that a dozen or more Astons are started from cold and driven for 2 minutes, twice a day until they are sold. Is this doing the cars any favours ?

I think this happens with pretty much every car that's for sale, everywhere in the world, every day. Including bentley, Ferrari and Lambo. Not ideal but got any better ideas? As long as they're not having the nuts revved off them, they'll be fine

Nice user name BTW

Less damage to them , than leaving them out there. :-)

Thanks - I have had that user name for many years - I used to compete in hillclimbs in one, before a Gould GR37....now I am back to where I started 20 years ago....in a Westfield....the older I get, the faster I used to be

Black ice should know. Often a fine overnight display there.
