Did 1000k in mine at the weekend and washed all the muck off yesterday.Still took it out today as I can't get enough of it. Take it out of storage. Who are you saving it for, some bloke 20 years from now just so he can say I've got a low mileage monaro. These cars thrive on being used. What you save on the miles you will only have to shell out on new brakes and tyres as the discs will be rusted and the tyres will be square

Get it out. You know you want too
Anyway if your missing it now imagine how it will feel when you sell it. You can take the boy out of the V8 but you cant take the V8 out of the boy. At least that's what they saypaperbag
I think hehe

You know i'm right

It'll be fiiiinnnee. Keep on trucking everyone. Nice to have V8 fun on a daily basis whatever the weather. No point in paranoia.

Why not have it seam-sealed and waxoyled? That'll be a lot cheaper than an Aston, probably be better protected* too. Are you going to take the AM out into the salty slush?

(Pretty sure, and slightly embarrassed, than my CV8 was the dirtiest one at the maxi-meet)

*I know nothing about the corrosion protection applied to late model Astons.

Strangley, I don't miss mine. It's been in the garage without a battery since... the last HSV RR day (Sept?). I honestly don't want to drive it and nor to I see when I will next (won't be this year).

Sad isn't it? Out of sight, out of mind. Stupid V8 Vantage in my head! :P
