Yeah, hopefully in a few years time my company will be worth enough.

Aston don't seem to make bad looking cars do they, not any more anyway.

Absolutely beautiful, except for those horrid rear tail lights, they looked ok when they started using the strip down the middle of them, now it just looks dated.

the 70's and 80's weren't the best era for Aston, take the Lagonda for example.

i was at Calder when i was a kid and Bob Jane took his brand new Lagonda out for a lap of the track between races, it was ugly then and it is now.

The Vanquish is the perfect Bond car. Its Brutal and Stylish at the same time.

Yep.

I actually prefer the DB9 (and hence DBS) and the V8 Vantage to the Vanquish. The Vanquish is just too much car for the money compared to the other cars in the lineup and it also doesn't look as good in my opinion.
