my uncle's new toy

[Forthright MC]

well, it looks like i will be lurking around the AM forum again, but ithought i'd post this in here too. an uncle of mine has got himself back into another Aston. with this!,





a rather stunning Met Silver (suspect it maybe Solent Silver, same as his previous DB7) 2003 Vanquish. i shall be spending a bit of time with the car hopefully early next week where better pictures will be taken so watch this space!
hope you enjoy these shots for now!

a bit later than originally stated, but here are some better pics,













whilst i was taking these pics my uncles buisiness associate turned up in his rather lovely V8 Vantage so i had the opportunity to photograph both these beauties together!,







what a truly beautiful sight!

Lovely car! but in my opinion starting to look abit dated, especially next to the AMV8

he's one of the bosses, he can park how he likes!

the angle of the car was just right for taking pics though

TBH no picture could do these 2 justice as in the flesh as they are both stunning!

the AMV8 is a lovely dainty thing, but the big butch Vanq is still very hard to ignore! its very imposing yet beautiful at the same time, something the DBS needs to be more like IMO

You can tell it is a true PH posting, there is an MX5 in most of the photos

The Vantage always looked a bit clunky in comparison to the original DB7. Not that it would put me off owning or driving either!

I think the vanquish is the best looking of all the astons, more aggressive than the db9

That number plate speaks for itself...OOO!!!

[Negative Creep]

lovely car, shame he can't park!

[Forthright MC]

cheers chaps, yeah it does look good with a bit of dirt on it i agree!
these parking spaces outside his office are very badly thought out, they're unbelievably tight, you'd need to be a real parking pro to pull in straight in one of those bays without having to back out and try again!

Lovely car!

Cant see the disabled badge in the window though ;-)
