I came, I saw, I got my ass kicked!

On my was back from collecting a leather interior for the touring (512 miles round trip!) i indulged in a little fun with another car.

Suffice to say he kicked my ass quite easily but then he couldn't carry a full leather interior like me!!

Just thought i'd share the picks of him 'putting the boot in'!

I'm gonna look stoopid if i get this wrong but i assume from the fuzzy pics that's a DB9.

Very nice. Worth sacraficing the load lugging abilities if you get one of them.

C.B. I found the pics too dark to make out the car too... i was torn between the aston and believe it or not...a volvo s40 (from the tailgate profile) they look verty similar in shadow profile.

But yea, i thought it was an aston too, with the exception of that tailgate.

correct that's a 575, i like the Volvo thinking Scott i'd love to tell him that.

Post Tue Jan 25, 2005 10:40 am

i read this post first and thought it was a Volvo

Post Tue Jan 25, 2005 12:43 pm

LOL at all the guessing!

Yeah sorry i forgot to mention, it is indeed a 575. It sounded the bollocks as he came past me on over-run too.

Made a nice change to see someone using the car properly, and not just cruising about like an old fart.

Oh well at least i wasn't the only one to have the Volvo thought cross the mind.

Still feel like a heathen for not recognising a Ferrari.

wil, if i had a 6 figure sub to spend on a car, it would NOT be a prancing horse!!!!!! mainly because it is too obvious and every1 would think you are some sort of posing berk!!!!! Buy an aston and every woman you ever meet is gonna wanna leave their husband/boyfriend/fiance/girlfriend/lesbian lover to live with you.
