I drive past the Astons all the time, it's great to see them all lined
up in the Summer. A few years back I even had a ride in one when a test
driver brought one along to my daughters nursery school open day.
Apparently the police were aware and turned a blind eye to the V8 doing
130mph trips up and down the A5 because it was for charity :-D It's not
the fastest I've been in a car, but it was very impressive to feel
something that solid (nearly 2 tons I think?) accelerating so quickly.
Now where did I put the winning lottery ticket?
