No on both counts!

God this place has got boring. If I want an F type I'll go on the Jag forum.

No idea how to upgrade my car, especially how to get it dyno'ed to prove mine's bigger than anyone else's.

So have I got this right - if when getting a car dyno'ed before and after, if I fart during the before test I have to in the after test as well as I may have altered both atmospheric pressure and temperature momentarily? Or do I have to go to at least 3 different dyno companies and take the average of the results? Do I then need to consider how to calculate an average - mean, mode or median?

Created this topic as a refuge for the sane members on here so we can talk about good Aston stuff

I cloud9 my vantage - no its not that fast, but God she's beautiful

Great post!

Surely you pass wind in an Aston rather than farting?

How common.

I know, you can take the boy out of the East End, but you can't take the East End out of the boy.

I have a fast, beautiful, green DB9 Volante and am going to Le Mans.

Why am I loading up a 12 year old Land Rover Discovery diesel? weeping

Looking at the forecast - because you can get more waterproofs in a Landy?

Taking 3 people, a gazebo, 18kg of charcoal, a BBQ, and 6 cases of Louis Roederer.

Neither Aston or Morgan credible alternatives frown

Aston is a 2+2. You can buy charcoal, a BBQ and what I presume is beer in France. Job sorted smile

hehe made me chortle that did (as it's about right!!) but I fear it depends on whether the offending trump was caused by Vindaloo, Madras or Patia..... As the heat and pressure would vary accordingly... biggrin
