Lovely. I think this vintage of DB9 are going to be "classics" sooner rather than later. They seem to have evolved into an almost retro style of their own.

Yep, I think so too. This post reminded me of:

Thanks everyone for your very kind posts - makes me feel at home already

the drive back from Amersham to Sussex was special ( although the M25 was like car park) The M23 and A27 legs were a great opportunity to "Bond" with the car (sorry for the pun) and by the time i got home it felt like i had had the car for months (although i need to play with the seat as i ended up with a numb leg from the side bolster) - as soon as i got home i had to take 2 very excited sons out for a drive and then the wife, then 5 minutes later two of the kids friends turned up and i ended up taking them out as well - they were absolutely amazed ( as was i that the 6 foot 18 year old managed to squeeze into the back seat!)

I think i will have a very busy weekend !

away on business in Cambridge on Monday - so i know what i will be driving
