    Mmmmm sweet !

    Bond's was a DB5 BTW !

    I saw a DB6 automatic (which kills it IMO) for sale about a year ago at €38000 in Ireland. Wine metallic !

    I suspect this guy will be thinking a lot more than that !

    If you have to ask the price you probably can't afford it. It has to be one of the most overrated sports cars in the planet. These things might look lovely but it has the handling characteristics of a Thames Trader.....brutal.:)

    Not sour grapes or anything, but...

    ...Astons as a marque are overrated, thirsty, unreliable, and a prime example of "hand-built" equating to "it'll fall apart in a month".

    Totally OT: Junkyard, did I see you in a white beetle (a real one) today?

    Who cares if the engine leaks like a seive? Just park it on the gravel and gaze! :)

    That's it. No one ever said car ownership had to make sense. :)

    Yes, very nice. It was the car I spotted initially! There might be a lot of them out there, but a straight honest to god beetle still catches the eye.
