Here's why I like the Aston


I saw a Moonrock S embedded in a line of Aston's in the Gaydon (manufacturing plant) car park late last summer. Had to do a double take and realised how well the S blended into the lineup.
Then went out and ordered one. (An S, not an Aston......... Maybe one day.......)

I see an R8 parked in the Welwyn North station car park every day.

Simon Cowell's got one.

Remember what Steve Coogan did to the Ford Probe?

It appears I may well be getting to sample an R8 'in the flesh' so to speak on Saturday.

A mate of mine is the finance manager at Audi Newbury and is 40 this weekend, seems they're letting him bring home the R8 demonstrator on Saturday.

I'll report back on Monday.

Saw an R8 the other day out in the hertfordshire countryside, nothing unusual there until i realised it was being chased by the new skyline!
Shortly after a 911 and an m3 made an appearance. Probably the Evo team or similar i should think out for a group test.
Skyline looked awesomely brutish!!
