    Aston AMV8

    Just got back from the motor show tonight, and I have had my build slot confirmed as the week of 6th Nov '06. Should turn up just before my 30th birthday

    Now for the really hard decisions: Colour selection. The Mercury (Grey with green touch) that most of the show cars are looks good, but I suspect there will be lots in that colour due to that. I'm thinking Meteorite Silver (the next darker metalic grey) could be the way to go, but the dark metallic blue ones look good in photos. Black looks good on all cars with curves as beautiful as the Astons, but it is a pain to keep clean.

    Egg-Nog test will be provided on delivery

    Massive step, a Saab to an Aston.

    Very nice.

    Meteorite Silver sounds good...but have you considered a dark metallic red?

    ...either way, I consider the V8 Vantage to be the coolest car on the market today

    You already have an Aston, people will look at you for that.

    Don't get known as the, "Have you seen the prick in the yellow aston? he may aswell right 'LOOK AT ME' in big letters on his car" guy.

    Congrats. It seems Aston Martin appears to be the sports car maker of choice on this forum.
