Popped along to Fleet Services this morning to see 'The Astons'.

There were +- 40 of them there , all i can say is WOW !!!

Have a great day , a safe trip to Beaulieu and back home again.

Looking forward to actually going to my first meet at Trinity Engineering next Saturday.

Cheers,
Nick

Yes it was a great sight.

It was even better at Beaulieu, all the Astons were parked in front of the museum, in the sunshine.

Thanks to the organisers and everyone who turned up, it was a great drive out.

The invasion of Fleet Services by AM owners - caused a bit of a queue on the slip whilst we all parked ;-)

Some seriously nice metal there Niki - is that a mako or a lightning silver - I shall guess the former - thanks for the pics smile

That looks like Mako to me.

The Sunburst yellow Vantage is equally stunning. What's the name of the colour of the blue DB9 parked next to it? Looks great.

Cobalt I'd say.......surprising really as I thought it was exclusively a vantage colour smile

Cobalt is a more intense blue than that. It was my initial thought though.

Hence it's probably Vertigo...

Thought you'd know your blues, like skin tones for you wink

Well said le Yeti.

The more I look at DB9 colour options....the more I disagree with you and George on this one (apologies) smile

Cobalt is like Lotus Laser blue, almost an electric blue - is Shmee's car Cobalt?

If Shmee's is Vertigo, I recant!

Shmee's is Glacial blue I think, certainly looks a lot like it if not.
