Picture the scene:

Only car is a V8 Vantage Roadster
It's raining so the roof has to be on
2 pairs of 177cm skis need transporting

I never, ever, ever, ever thought they would fit inside so easily:



Don't worry as there was suitable protection in place for the bits of the car the skis could damage, but before throwing the bags in the car too, my passenger was perfectly comfortable with the skis in there too (although they were a bit straighter into the footwell then).

Roll on taking this car to the Alps at some point (with some suitable winter tyres of course...)

I see your skis are not Aston Martin branded accessories, do Aston still market skis?

Isn't there a ski rack located in your sills

Enjoy the break.

Luckily skis aren't as long as they were when I learned to ski (and no they weren't wooden either!!!)
