"Can I have your......

.....autograph please " ? That`s what a youngster ( 8-10 years ) on a pushbike said last evening as I pulled in a near empty municipal car park in the V8V in downtown Halesworth . Told him when I was his age I wanted a super-dooper sports car ( do today's kids say that ?), his little sister piped up with " my house is worth half a million " I told them to ask their parents to downsize and buy a couple of AM`s for them.
Contrast this with a similar situation last year . I`m in Rosso 360 F1 , tubi rumbling , looking cool in aviator shades ( questionable), I`m stationary at a school crossing, three lads clock me give me the swivel one shouts out " You`re a bit old for a car like that intcha "

Me, lost for words ...but grinning ( just )

They're probably still talking about the day a horseless carriage came to town in the land of swedes and wurzles.

IN a porker or ferrari IMHO most people think you are a git. But in an Aston... People think you are charming, with wit and elegance.

Funnily enough, in the three weeks I have had my Aston I have head more people come up and speak to me than I ever had with my previous Porsches or Ferraris. The only other car I found to attract more comments was the Daimler Dart SP 250 I had.

The cylcist I passed at 7500 rpm in second gear the other day thought I was a GIT, I made him jump out of his skin!

Mikail, it would be even better if a 28 year old lady came up & asked for your phone number, but I suppose its a start !

My Mrs was sitting in the car one day & a couple siddled over to look at it & she heard the chap say to his girlfriend..........
" what do you mean your trading me in for an Aston Martin you cheeky mare" !

In my, thankfully limited, experience (on a trip round Asda which I don't intend to repeat) the er, 'larger' woman goes for the smaller size tracksuit preferably with horizontal stripes, all the better to show off the shorter squater figure.

I assumed Hants was packed to the gunnels with Waitrose, Tesco`s finest plus various other quality stores !

We have a Primark in Norwich where you can buy a zoot suit, single vent one button jacket, for £16 plus change.
