I know its a bit childish of me, but don't you think it would be very cool if the Prime Minister was driven round in a Rapide ? Aston Martin would have to pay for it and its upkeep....but great advert for British manufacturing, and far better than the crap German and French Ministers drive round in.....come on Aston cough up smile

The Jaguar is a little less likely to attract the ire of taxpayers.

The taxpayers should have nothing to do with it if Aston funded it.

Anyway I'd be for it!! Shame they won't...

PM, driver and two security chaps - that would be cosy in the Rapide.

Perhaps something like this would suit.

yes, I cant seem the issue if its funded by AM as a marketing excercise ....make him an armoured Rapide ...he can claim back the fuel at .40p a miles so that will cover the expenses wink

Yes it would be a great advert for British manufacturing to have the PM being driven round in a car produced by Magna Steyr in Graz, Austria as part of a outsoucing deal, as it was cheaper than expanding / tooling up for production in the UK rolleyes

I hope your general sales techniques are better than your approach here fella, or you'll be going hungry over Christmas.

And when pulling someone up on their spelling, it might be worth at least checking your own is on the ball to avoid looking like a weapons grade bell end! An apostrophe isn't meant to be bandied about at random, nor are capital letters. And there's a world of difference between "your" and "you're".

Good luck with the Boxster and Cayman sales wink

I think I counted 17 mistakes in 3 lines, that may be why we have Astons instead of Porsches wink
