Dash plaques for competing in / attending various AMOC events.

Once upon a time you’d have nailed them into the wood on your dash for posterity.

I suspect in a DB9 that someone bought a load off eBay and have adorned their car with clubby ephemera.

But I may be wrong & cynical.

Thanks smile It's from a car on Autotrader, very similar to mine.


I expect DB9s can go to AMOC events too...! - though he doesn't have the middle bits...

Sorry, I didn’t mean to sound as snippy as I did.

The DB9 is a proper Aston Martin. But the whole plaque thing comes off as a very ‘Feltham & Newport Pagnell’ thing.

The centre console of a DB9 is a masterclass in how to use up space for no purpose. Especially the pre-2008 ones which don't even have storage under the armrest.

My dear boy; what would you need storage space for? Your man can bring your wallet and sunglasses along with your luggage, guns and rods when he follows you in your shooting brake

Well the Walther PPK for a start. That kind of thing you need in a hurry.
