Looks like my Aero is about to go into build next week. A visit to the factory is on the cards!

Thats great news. I think the new Areo is simply stunning, could never afford one myself but am delighted for the guys who not only can afford one but see the great sense in doing so. They really are just about the ultimate car in my view.

Looking forward to seeing some pics, Shooter. Have you decided on the colours!

Colours are all done (had to confirm it all while I was away in Africa).

Jon Wells kindly did some playing with photoshop so I could get the design and look just right.

The car will be slightly more subdued than my matt black and Aztec yellow Series 4 but possibly be an even more marmite car that will probably divide opinion even more.

However, it is an idea I had toyed with when I specced the S4 but couldn't seem to make work. On the S5 I think it will work well.

The mock-ups do not have the exact chosen colour yet, only the approximate as I am trying to find it. The concept though is complete and my painter is primed and ready to do the work.

The interior will be fairly standard but more traditional than Aero with the wood rimmed Moto Lita to match the rest of the wood in the car and the leather will be the very bright scarlet red, not the normal red in this picture.

The mock up below shows the airbag wheel and the darker red. It was done so I could decide on carpet and dashboard colours as an indicator.
