...... NEED TO SELL AS ASTON V8 COMING SOONER THAN THOUGHT!
Hmmm, what are the implications of that for the state of Aston Martin's orderbooks?

I've seen the new AM V8 on the road totally undisguised 4 times now around Northampton. It is a left hand drive car on UK 05 registration plates in British racing green metallic with a very orangey/tan coloured interior. I ran alonside it in heavy traffic heading towards the M1. I was in my Cayenne at the time and got a good view looking down at it. I have to say I would switch over to it in a heartbeat from my 997 on looks alone as it looks stunning and very taughtly proportioned....... and I'm still in my 30's by the way
You are a lucky, lucky man Grant

Can't wait to see some of these Astons on the road. I agree that it's a car I think of as being for someone in their 40s rather than 30s, but also agree that this car could change this view.
It will be interesting to see the reviews of the car compared (no doubt) to the 997. I'm pretty confident that the Aston will come out as a good GT car and the 997 the sporty option, but I don't think that is what AM want. Also, it will be interesting to see if the British press will be heavily biased towards the AM with it's British roots. Should be interesting cos they never have a bad word to say about the 997...
