Hello all!
Holy Moly - thread is alive and kicking I see. I haven’t checked in for a while but just read the last few pages. Some delights (as there always used to be!) and a few familiar names still around!
That 131 looks amazing. £30k seems like a bargain these days. And £40k for the Cosworth doesn’t seem bad either.
@jeremyc - “your” DB7 is in fine form at the moment - after a couple of years in lock down it’s been great to get it serviced and back on the road. I took it down to the classic car hub a couple of weeks ago for their evening event (which was excellent!). Sadly the kids no longer fit in the back and Mrs rejn has never loved it so I think it’ll be up for sale soon…

But won't Mrs R. miss being able to say "Shall we take the Aston, Darling?".

From the vaillant website:
‘ Easter Sunday, 1899. Johann Vaillant is leafing through the monthly magazine Alte und Neue Welt at leisure. While scanning the pages, a picture catches his eye: a hare is escaping out of an Easter egg. Other little animals and comical dwarves stand around the egg and marvel at the miraculous hare. Johann Vaillant is so fascinated by this picture that he acquires the copyright to the curious Easter image – the hare is to become the trademark of his company from that point on. Since 1899, the hare has adorned Vaillant’s products, catalogues and brochures and ensures an unmistakable brand image. Today, the Vaillant hare is one of the best-known product logos in Europe.’
So there you go…

Here’s one that was lurking under the trees at the Silverstone Classic a few years ago
