Looks great - what was the story of the wheels? Were they especially done for you?
Do please watch out for your sump. I was very upset to have damaged mine and I'm uber careful - I'm also quite experience at driving low-slung cars. Seems the Aero is vulnerable.
I think Cain at Wolf Performance is going to come up with something useful for the Aero V8 owners which will offer some protection. The original colour was silver, they needed a refurbish and I thought the GTN style Satin finish would go with the black roof quite nicely as well as accentuate the gorgeous body lines, so they were sent away, hand stripped and finished in Satin black. I have to admit it has turned out even better than I envisaged. Thanks for the info, I will be careful of any sly speed bumps! Looks stunning the wheels really suit the car as well. I'm at RTCC tomorrow morning might see you up there. Thanks Malcolm, the car is being delivered to me so unfortunately I won't be at RTCC, if you spot her though feel free to take a pic of two for the memory box!

Hi Nick!
If you love your Aero as much as I love mine you'll be a very happy bunny!
The only problems I've had with mine was been totally ignored by a trad +8 owning MSCC Member at a noggin and the same day a comment from an old Discovery owner saying it was the ugliest car he'd ever seen to which I replied that 'you couldn't afford one anyway'! Enjoy!

As a former owner, the Discovery isn't exactly pretty either!

Well I finally have her! She looks even better in the flesh, have to admit I am over the moon  Unfortunately the weather is awful today so she is tucked up in my carpeted garage for now, I will get some better pics when the weather improves and I can actually drive her.  In the meantime.. i'm off for another look! Regards, Nick

I have a set of Anthracite stickers but I am going to leave them plain I think, like the GTN's.
