I know I shouldnt have but 10 months into my "cheap" 12 month SL350 contract I got the urge to change again. It goes back tomorow (I have to pay 95% of the remaining 2 rentals :( ) .

The beasty that caught my attention is a 15k miles 3 year old Aston Martin DB7 Vantage Auto . I never really got over letting my last one go . This one is Antrim Blue and I collect it From Leeds tomorrow :D

Happy Christmas to me :bannana:

That's exactly what surveys show. Nine/ten months after buying a car we are used to it, the new buzz has worn off and the itch occurs. If money is not a problem it is very tempting to scratch it. Some say marriage is fairly similar.
 
Nice - look forward to "seeing" the new AM:devil:
 
Happy Christmas Steve, great Christmas pressie! :D
 
cool - wouldn't mind trading my benz in for an aston
 
Congrats Steve, I am having trouble keeping up with your cars, they change so often :D

Even my poll here supports that - the majority have had their M-B under a year :)

Mmm, gorgeous Steve. Love the colour combo :cool:
 
That's it - I'm officially jealous and cross. My desk is now a mess from drooling :rolleyes: :crazy: :p :D

It looks gorgeous - very sexy:devil: :D
 
Thanks chaps & chapesses, pammy I dont mind you drooling but when you see the car in the metal please try not to drool on the leather ;) :D

Sacre Bleu I just realsied that the car doesnt have the drilled alloy pedals that my last one had. - I feel my first mod comming on ! :bannana:

I'm not going to go for the sports exhaust thus time though. mainly because I found it a tad too loud for every day use. :eek:

This weekend if I am allowed (xmas preps & all that) I hope to fit my B2 & laser jobby. although, I am considering trying the new road angel plus.
 
gorgeous looking car.
Sheer class.
Good on you and enjoy driving it (and looking at it)
 
love the colour and love the interior... gorgeous..
