On the basis that most of these Cars are well known amongst Aston Enthusiasts I was wondering if anyone knows this Car and can perhaps share some of its history ?

Not known to me but the wheel arch profiles look off in the close-up pics: NSR irregular shape and lower rear trailing edges of left and right front wheel arches look to have different profiles. May just be the photographs but worth checking out if you are thinking of bidding.

Bidding ? biglaugh You must have me confused with someone else . To be honest I was hoping for some details regarding the Car as there doesn't appear to be much on the Auction Site . I was reasonably sure I had seen the Car up at the Works when I owned the Vantage , perhaps its best posted on the Aston section

What response did you expect when you asked the question?

As always I am delighted by any response , I was simply hoping to learn something of the cars history and make that plain in my initial post . Why that should solicit a banghead response from you I don't know . Its a strange car to find at Kings Lynn , perhaps more suited to Bonhams or Silverstone though perhaps on account of the Internet I have that wrong too . This amongst a few other things is what sparked my interest .

Thanks for that . Not bidding and sadly few bargains at this level .

Seems a very odd entry? I’d have thought it would have gone in a Silverstone, Bonhams, Goodwood kind of place.
