[mikey k]

It's Friday afteroon so why not
Apparently part of the new Aston Martin Q Series offering

Wow...you just know Yeti's salivating.

Then Georgeous aka Vicky Pollard will come on and say he likes it but he doesn't like it so he does like it

Do they do it in tartan?

Bonkers - get a skateboard, rivet to an AM... genius - can't believe that passed the laugh test.

Thought it was a snow shoe. This really isn't serious is it?

Nope. It looks fking horrible! Seriously matte paint, black wheels and carbon fibre effect material?? It's like they found my most hated looks and combined it into one of my favourite cars

And I would much rather have the normal Aston luggage set in cream truffle

I did wonder about an April Fool or some other piss take
But no it is the launch car showcasing their talent and imagination for the Q Service

They have a really rather nice range of paints

But some of the other stuff is
I wonder how much the track day bullet cam option is?
I think I've just sorted a wide angle HD one for £130

Keep up at the back Mikey, I announced it a while back - http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...



The heritage paints are lovely. Shame they didn't showcase them, and chose the Essex collection instead

Sorry too pipe & slippers for me
Didn't take any notice & just spotted the luggage holder on the boot whilst doing a search for something else!.

That's got to be a joke hasn't it? Surely!
As well as looking terrible it's also impractical. I mean, what would you put in the cylindrical bit of the interior one?

I thought it was just the most ridiculously over engineered bottle carrier

Why have they stuck a luggage rack on top of the boot though

[B4rnst4ble]

I wonder how many times you will have to buy the luggage, pull up at the traffic lights and someone runs off with your bag! Buy the luggage again, and so it goes on

It's copied from a similar DBS 'saddle bag' and the cylinder is meant for a driving atlas.

If they have one of those for sale at the factory visit, it's coming home with me

Love it! The rest is pants...

Anyway, my bespoke Parliament Green luggage has started arriving, I'll post pics of it on Monday (it's still in my office). It's >really< nice

A driving atlas? The SatNav isn't that bad.

Yup...

Here's the DBS saddle bag...

[George H]

I don't quite get why you would roll up an atlas like that. I think it serves a far more useful purpose as a wine transporter!
