Called Aston Martin Assistance and they've arranged for the car to be taken to Grange in the morning. Just hoping there's a spare Pirelli corsa knocking around the network - I'm doing the AM Driving Experience on Wednesday so really don't want to turn up in anything else!!

Gavin from Grange has already emailed me which is great, but just gutted no more Aston fun for me this weekend. :-(

The very nice (and helpful) lady at AM Assistance suggested that I could try Kwik Fit in the morning.........Bless.

Will there be anyone there on a Sunday? Is it the Welwyn Grange? I know they keep some stock but may be worth trying Supertyres in Welwyn.

Normally someone knocking around on a Sunday. Thanks for the Supertyres tip. If they have a P Zero for a V12 in stock, the first pint at the chimney is definitely on me. bow

It's a front unfortunately. But thanks anyway. Hoping that Grange can pull something out of the bag. Just been out to the garage to let her know that the nice man is coming to get her soon to make her all better.

Bloody typical, first decent weather on a bank holiday this century and the V12 is in dock. furious

The car is with Grange now and I'm resigned to not seeing it again until Tuesday. Change of plan.......a beer festival in the next village promises to keep me entertained. But again, thanks..

Think I'll pick up a spare front and a spare rear for the future, so hope that I don't have to return the favour........if you know what I mean.

Cheers.
