GT3 gone, hello Aston Martin!!
« on: September 20, 2010, 05:57:32 pm »
The rather fine GT3 in my sig below has gone and after 15 years of Porsche ownership I have decided to try something a little different:-




It's an Aston Martin V12 Vantage in Mako blue. The car has a 6.0 litre V12 engine from the DB9/DBS line and does 0-60 in 4.1s with a top speed of 190mph.
There are currently 200 V12 Vantages in the UK, with only 4 in this rare colour.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Glad you like. It's a stunning car to drive and is a piece of art to walk around. The exhaust note at all revs from 2000 rpm to 7000 rpm is delicious!
Oh yeah forgot to say, it has 510 bhp so doesn't hang around!!!!
