Awesome, awesome, awesome!!!

1989 911 3.2 Carrera Sport Cabriolet -

Here you go, don't make a mess 😉

W124 and W140 were the best engineered cars ever built, period.

E46 M3 CSL is the car we all should have bought when they had depreciated to £25-30,000 Daren't even look what they cost now haha. The noise they make is epic.

The Roadsters were wobbly as hell. They simply did not feel safe at high speeds. If you flipped or even had any sort of impact against other more solid vehicles or objects you would be dead, end of. An ex Gf's Dad saw that happen once and said what he saw when he ran to the wreck to see if he could help was something he still shudders to think about now. You can get a better ide of how low and exposed they are from this pic of it surrounded by normal modern cars - EDIT - This pic is from mid 2000's, consider that modern cars are even bigger now!!! Got more respect, coupe or roadster, from other road users than in any other of the probably 200+ types of car of every make including all the good ones I have driven though.

Yep, centre lock with spinners. Wire wheels are nightmare. These pics are from 15 odd years ago now. Had a black roadster a few times as well -

But you were a bloody cool cad 😎

Yep, pretty good :-0)

Ex-Ministerial Protection Daimler Super Eight. Armoured. Tuned. De-Limited. 500BHP. Interesting bit of kit in it's day.

Sunset over E-Type 😎

Noted. I stand by my preferred list of pilot commercial pilot selection though. I/lets not make comments over a dead man anyway.

Yep. I'll have an ex RAF, FAA, USAF, USN, or most NATO air service pilots over any direct to cockpit trained bods and they can run whatever protocoles they want to get me where I'm going in one piece 🙂

Always like a few days in Hua Hin 😎

I've said it before and I'll say it again; cramming 190 people into a 737 or A320 is fucking stupid. Nothing to do with the cause of the accident.....but the frequency of accidents of these aircraft, due to the massive numbers of them in operation is all adding up. This will go down as CFIT. Pilot error. Same as OG269. Pilot skill and experience simply not good enough. THIS is how good they should be - The pilot comms at 00:48 is just beyond perfection. Then, when they're on short finals, ATC gives them windage at 4:38...just a double click of the Mic to confirm. Superb.

No other Aston has to have ASTON MARTIN spelt out on the back does it 😐

That Aston is FROM over $200,000 as well 🤔

Trucks.

Oh, and a bit more up to date, I saw my first one of these today. It didn't stand out at all, totally anonymous looking, I walked right past it and got in my car next to it. Could have been any Jap/Koren mid-size SUV. Then as I looked over my shoulder before reversing out I thought, is that an Aston Martin door handle? Which indeed it was.

Here's some ultra hardcore taboo back room under the counter car porn. This was at the 2005 Goodwood Festival of Speed, Cartier Style et Luxe enclosure -

Great cars, i had a non Evo in Techno Violet a few times. I liked how the non Evo had a very linear power delivery.

That's a good thing !
