Zippee,
i hope you see this, i know the fella who owns that car.
he lives in the large house opposite the Eaton Oak he's a mate of my uncle who owns a DB7.
that car is an absolute beast! he's had the full V600 works kit put on it so it has got 2 upgaded superchargers the size of Devon, works fettled Suspension Mods and a big bore exhaust! i have never heard another car like it! it actually shakes the ground when you stand behind it!
approx BHP is around 600! (original had 550!) and the top speed is around 205 MPH.
i know another bloke in Eaton Socon at the top of mill hill who owns a black V8 Vantage (V8 STN) he is a close friend of my uncle too.
BTW cheers for the wave when you saw me up Offord on Saturday!
james.

Is it only me who sees beauty in that design? Everybody else goes on about the DB7, 9 and the new V8 about being "pretty" and "beautiful", whereas the old twin screw Vantage gets called a Beast and Brutal. I think it is absolutely stunningly beautiful and there is a delicateness to the brutal design. Without a doubt it is the Aston I want (unless the Vanquish keep growing on me at its current rate) and will possibly replace the Sagaris with.

The DB7 is the ultimate Aston for its looks, but the 90s style V8 Vantage V600 is stunning, how much are they going for now? (the V600), I know they were about $400,000 when new 6 or 7 years ago.
