Morning,
Army v Navy rugby for me today. Start day with a bad head so may as well carry on I guess. Have a good day.

Morning just :)

Today will mostly be fitting sounds to the Fulvia, hidden bluetooth amp in glovebox and hidden speaker pods under rear seats so no hole cutting and nothing non-standard visible.

They are a think of beauty and muscle Adam. They had 5 there yesterday. Alex loved the Red Bull V12 Vantage S they had. Looked stunning but at £5 under 300k it's one **** of a mark up on a standard car.


A very good morning to all. Football tournament with my youngest this morning then off to see End Game at 3.

The Red Bull Vantage is stupidly priced. Lovely, but a vast mark-up for some cosmetics. Oddly, Bristol had two in when I was looking 18 months ago. The DBS I sent you is the AM Cambridge-commissioned DBS59, a limited run special celebrating Aston’s win at Le Mans in 1959. They’ll be handed over to their new owners at the circuit at the start of this year’s race. Look it up and see the interior. It’s wonderful.

Morning, all. Quiet day here likely to be determined by the weather.

They had Tag Heuer addition DBS at Bristol....That was very dark and mean looking.

The new 7 speed manual AMR Vantage 59 Edition looks the business to. Each time I see the new Vantage is grows on me. Yes the lights and front devide opinion...but the noise they have got from the new engine is pretty special. They had a powder blue one in the showroom and it did look rather special.

Yes, agreed, and powder blue is a gorgeous colour. There’s one on AutoTrader. It’s a colour sensitive car for sure. The updates are bound to include vents to break up the expanse of bonnet and, eventually, a convertible. In powder blue, that could be stunning.

Money all, more work on the Fulvia today got a bit side tracked into sorting out some previous Italian wiring and had to remove the seats to understand why they were moving a bit which was another job on the to do list. Should finish all the electrical and sound stuff today which will only leave the mechanical check pre Le Mans brakes, fluids etc.

Morning all, sore heads in the South? Decorated two rooms yesterday as penance I guess.

Get to finish more today and then maybe get the Gransport off the lift.

Have fun all...

Morning all...

Mornings DIY has flummoxed me.

I cannot budge a part on the car. It's stuck fast. Using an adjustable spanner, so thought I'd buy a proper ring one to get more force and less slip. Bought a set of spanner...none fit!! Balls

Also, want to wash the Cara but it's freezing and living in London, I need to wait till someone movea their car who is parked outside my house.

DIY fails. The pub awaits later.
