one-77 on display at Wilmslow

[Knights of Aston]

Just to let you all know, Stratstone of Wilmslow are having an open day on Saturday (10th) and will have a one-77 in the showroom for everyone to have a peak at. Apparently it's only going to be in there for the one day.

[Jockman]

Also running a free service health check on your current car and prodrive in a car of your choice - this part by invitation only.

Excluding the one-77

[George H]

Might have to have a run over for that.

Haha!

Seems to be a full event. Looking forward to seeing on in the flesh for the first time!

Said same 1-77 is coming to Leeds next week. I've got my invite so looking forward to see one in the flesh

I live 10 miles down the road, get me car serviced there and didn't get an invite
Sod them I'm off to Scotland that day anyway

Strange you wouldn't be on the list . I suppose they'd invite people who have extended expressions of interest in a new car recently then maybe ran out of spaces. Might be worth giving them a call though...

I even gave them a glowing recommendation after mine was in there last week and no invite, sod them indeed :-)

That just rubs salt in the wound
I'm about to take delivery of a new Vantage S roadster from Grange in Exeter because Wilmslow CBA to deal with a new car enquiry
No great shakes clambered of the 1-77 at the "homecoming"

In fairness, they know you've just spent your dosh so wouldn't have invited you anyway. Also you're stoked on morphine and likely to be a liability.

Getting me confused with RobGT I think
Fair point on having spent the cash though.

Is this at the workshops or the showroom??

Both

Any maintenance stuff is being done away from the showroom, with all else at the showroom.

Doh! You astoneer PHers all look the same to me!

[Knights of Aston]

The one-77 is at the showroom.

I'll give it a miss.... Parking at the showroom is a PITA

Mr Q. you drive an Aston.

You don´t park at the showroom.

You park IN the showroom

[Jockman]

Quinny said:

How does that work?? Even some of the cars on sale are parked on the road

Only pulling your leg Mr Q. It can be hectic, you are right.

My experience with Dealers is that they will turn a blind eye to you blocking in their cars when they see you in the Aston. They are very keen to get you in and talk to you.

I even had one take the car away and park it for me last time I did a prodrive

Errr you must mean the DB9 drivers because they all wear the same style beige cardigans-not easy to see the differences.

I think you'll find that is tweed not a beige cardigan (we aren't from Wales) - makes a nice change from the shell suit brigade in the cut price Astons

I'm probably going to sound like an idiot here because it does say open day, but nevermind. Are non-owners OK to have a peek at the One-77? I went in there when I was a student and asked about the Aston brand, they were very helpful and couldn't have done more.

Thanks
