Still alive!

That looks tremendous.

My mrs is running a 2010 Mk3 1.5 dci 86 in sport tourer trim for the dog. I specifically made sure it was pre DPF. Spent quite abit of money on it doing the cambelt etc, 4 tyres, front discs and pads are going to want doing and its now leaking water into the rear foot well so I have a door seal...

I assumed they were run flat. My mistake. I 've been spoiled with an Elise for the last 5 years I guess. Can't say I have tried it with the traction control off. Certainly goes very well.

Yep on the Michelin Pilot Super Sports..

Interesting you should get one of these Mark. I am two months/ 2000 miles into ownership of a 16 plate LCI auto. I have to say I am not gelling with it at all and will probably try and off load it before Christmas. The engine is a peach, it's monumentally quick, remarkably economical and...

All that effort spent painting the backbox and you go and put a stainless on it! Looking good though!

Lets be honest nobody buys a 200 for the way it looks anyway... compared to the 197 its an ugly car so if you got a decent deal on it because a sales manager had suspect taste somewhere then well done mate. Its all reversable anyway but I quite like the red blades with the black...if the wheels...

Love the Aston. Have you thought about a classic car? I ran a series 3 landrover for abit and insurance was a few hundred quid... It did require abit of tlc but it was easy to work on... only issue is it probably uses more fuel than the Aston. As a young lady with an Aston can't you mindfuck one...

Forsale already?

Great fun these, they do about 70mph in 2nd and sound like half a 911! Not a lot of grip though.

100hp is a great car, I really miss mine, the handling was nothing short of brilliant. Better than a 172 and i ve had two of them!

Check the boot floor, if thats knackered it could easily be a write off. Stupid place to park granted but it sounds like you may have been going abit fast and/or tailgating your mate, we've all done it, one of those things that you regret afterwards.

Much prefer the 2nd ones.

Especially when you do the 'industrial leaf blower impression' Kerb height side exit exhaust on nearside + a blip of the throttle = road sweeper matching gutter clearing abilities!
