Not driven mine because my 22 yr old nipper took it.
After borrowing it last week he’s decided that he rather likes it……a lot

You never know Peter. It may just be a hiatus before you get annoyed with the supreme reliability, comfort, handling of the sausage club. You might just a little raw reality from time to time  Good to hear you are staying with us.

Raw reality? God, that means a M3W....or a super 3.....

Yes I have! It's been a while - I left the Aero with Morgan on 15th February for a 2-4 week paint fix (at the Factory's expense), and some detailing from my pocket. The Paint Shop got a bit carried away, and seem to have done a lot more work than the warranty team were expecting. (Yaay, small victories, take them where you can :-) ) And after 12 weeks I collected the car on Friday Today's Goodwood breakfast meet was a joy - so many people love an Aero - and when it's the only one there it stands out amongst the many Porsches, Ferraris, Astons, Lamborghinis... there were even more Project 7 Jaguars than Aeros today! ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2023/05/07/PXL_20230507_060104508.MP.md.jpeg) And I had a couple of chats that could lead to a sale... if not, the car will be with a trader next week. If you've ever though an Aero might be your thing, now's the time to save yourself the trader's 7.5% commission A mate of mine spotted you at Cobham services on the 5th, sent me a pic and asked if i knew the car :-) It's a small world when you have an Aero eh?

It is - everyone's your friend when you're in an Aero :-) When your mate introduced himself I knew the Aero he was talking about, even though we've not met Will

I had a moment like that. I took the S2 into a BMW garage to look do an oil change and engine inspection as it had been SORN for a good bit.
Whilst it was on the ramp the engineer took a photo and put it on his sochul medier. One of his friends replied to him that he had been in the car as he was the guy that cuts my hair. Then another replied that he had detailed it a year back. Funny how so many people know each other in such a tiny circle.

Indeed... they're memorable cars
A couple of years back a genuinely lovely pro influencer type took & posted 2 pics of the Aero in the Festival of Speed car park. *2* photos was a thing... every other car got just one pic. & you know what the car parks at Goodwood are like - far more interesting than most car shows!
A thread of conversation followed.
15 months later [Fifteen months!!!] the Aero was tagged on the M27 by someone who had seen that conversation!
Amazing: I'll never own another car like it.

Just back from a few weeks driving right across France - car didn't miss a beat. High speeds for hours on end and the perfect car at the destination.... ![[Linked Image]](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53002528451_d36b9775d1_b.jpg) Great sunset shot Neil
