I live down under in OZ and there aint a hope in hell of getting a drive. I am considering a roadster if the budget will push that far..
I travel into the UK and Switzerland , anyone know where I Can get a good rental for a day or more to give one of these puppys a try. I dont want to flog it to death or anything just get a real feel.

I am just concerned taking one of these cars from a small shop and becoming their repairs budget because of all the stories I have heard of getting stung and loosing a deposit.

Any ideas on pricing..the best I have been offered is like 2k GBP..Seems steep

I have used Elite in Geneva a few years ago - good service - will meet you at the airport etc. They also have quite a selection of decent machinery.

Why not do the Aston Martin Performance Driving course - about £1.5k and you get one-to-one tuition, access to several different tracks, lunch and afternoon tea.

Run by the Factory. In the UK it is hosted at Millbrook - the testing facility. The Alpine course is where the DBS rolled in Casino Royale.

Seriously fun.

Call the factory
