Great collection of photos there.  £280,000 plus restoration costs.

I do like a nice Aston Martin. I had a tour of the plant and design studio at Gaydon.
They also had a display of historic Astons

I suppose the question has to be which one did you buy Neil?  :smiley:

I've been picking up some Automobilia bits and fancied an old DB5/6 wooden steering wheel, but just went for silly money (£4,200). lots of interesting bits their but anything remotely related to 007 gets stupid money.

It was worth it for the Photos and sound of the car park though  :happy2:
