I look forward to hearing that. The Aston was a pleasant sight when our commutes occasionally aligned, but if you see a grey Subaru rolling the window down, you know what to do! ;)

Will you keep it long enough to reach the 1K service (that'll be 5 tanks of fuel from now ;-)).

Lovely. I covet these more than the modern day M car.

I just hope you have acquired it on a business lease.

you were bragging how well you had done with residuals until you bought the AMV8 and now a C63.
