Thanks Harry - usefull thoughts, particularly as it was raining cars adn dogs when I saw the blue car so very hard to tell the state of the body. Also had some interesting discussions around the 4.8 in the showroom at SGT but that would mean being totally without any Pork and, like 1 or 2 on here, that may be a bridge too far...!

The silver car was also my first drive in an Aero and it was massively better than expected - I was expecting old Aston and got big Caterham.

On a random note, has anybody clocked an earlier car from 0-100? Obviously the car is quick but I'm probably a bit over-careful of test driving cars on consignment sale (especially loved ones!!) so haven't got a very good feeling for the poke.

thanks
Charlie
