A Christmas vid for you all. From sea level to sea level over the highest pass in the UK in under three minutes - what more could you want. (OK probably a lot, but this is all you'll get from me).

(Broadband will be fine... dialup should only think of a 'right click - save as' - 11 mb... sorry)

Have a good one folks, and a great 2007

Superb.

Would you mind emailing me the start and end location? I think a little detour could be in order when up on the Tartan Hoon next March.

No problem Daz... start and finish are near my house (It's tough here I can tell you)

e mail on the way (ish)

[dazren]

Look forward to receiving the mail. Incidently The Tartan Hooners should be staying (at a certain place begining with G) about 40 mins from your place on Friday 16th March 07, if you are in the area and fancy joining us at the pub/restaurant for the evening.

[GetCarter]

Sounds Good. I always wanted to go to Greece.

Mail on way... keep in touch.

[dazren]

Will do.

You are of course invited to join us for some of the hooning in your locale. Perhaps you'd care to share some of your local knowledge by leading The Lead Pack?

Up for that if I'm not in the smoke working - If it's only up to X50's you can follow the Landie

Awesome road & NO OTHER TRAFFIC....fabulous, you don't get that where I am! Like the music what is it?
This could be the start of a monthly Scottish driving vid, next time lets have some by the road side shots so we can see & HEAR the V8!
Have a great Christmas.

This message is intended for the Aston Martin section of the forum. I have no idea as to whether or not it'll get there. If there are any kindly Aston members out there I'd be grateful for any guidance.

I have looked at several DB7 Vantage Volantes lately with a view to buying one. Many of them ( even those offered by main dealers ) do not have what I think of as being a FULL service history. They often only have a fully stamped service book** but lack invoices, bills, receipts and, most importantly, MOT's. The dealers state that Data Protection laws prevent the paperwork being made available since it will identify the previous owner(s), but the LOG BOOK shows this information anyway. Is it thought to be unwise to buy a car lacking this documentation ? Will the absence of this paperwork put off subsequent potential purchasers ?

SLB
++ What wories me is that often ALL of the service stamps in the service book are those of the dealer selling the car and we all know just how easy it would be for them to stamp in a few blank spaces where services might have been missed.
