Well, so much for waiting until next year (like I told the Mrs I would) spotted a couple of cars I wanted to see because they had a few 'extra's' such as a Larini exhaust etc...then went for a 'standard' then paid a deposit on an 07 V8V roadster......hopefully collect it Friday morning!

Forecast is rain rain rain......

Good job and wavey
Welcome to the even more exclusive roadster club wink
Forget the rain I've just done 1800 miles in 5 days round Scotland roof stayed down for all but the worst rain!
You know it needs the roof up when it starts coming over the top of the windscreen smile

Thanks for the welcome.
I know what you mean about the roof down. The roof was always down on the TVR I had. In fact the guy who purchased it seemed surprised I had not had the air con re-gassed but I really didn't see the point as the roof was always down if it was not raining!

Good to see another ex TVR owner, there are quite a number of us now with AM's.

Seems to be a popular move from TVR to Aston. i wondered at the time whether I would miss the oomph and rawness of the Tiv, to tell the truth the last time I thought of that was when the Aston keys were placed in my sweaty palm. You'll love it.
