Virages in southern spain

[V8Miller]

On holiday driving on some lovely roads in southern Spain, wishing I was in my Aston, when lo and behold 3 Aston Martin Virages raced past on gb plates! Anyone any idea what's going on? Apart from the obvious that I am clearly delirious, missing my Aston and now seeing mirages

I know someone who is on a "working holiday" in southern Spain at the moment. Oh yeah, and he works for the AM PR dept - coincidence, unlikely!

Octane have an article with a Virage in Spain, guess the cars are still doing the rounds?!

See Sutters' review in the Road Tests section of PH. Looks like the media event for the Virage was in southern Spain.

Mystery solved! Tracked them down and its the worldwide press launch for the virage and the vantage s. Great location and some lucky souls get to drive them round the ascari circuit tomorrow. Very jealous!

It's the media launch. If you read some of the articles they mention Ronda which is that area.

Good shout - I think some of the Vantage S stuff was coming from the track.

Yep, caught up with them in ronda, and tomorrow is ascari. Should be interesting to hear the write ups. Fifth gear have already shot their film apparently.
