Star_whites was nearly a contender but a couple of things he read on the forum seemed to put him off.  maybe it was the windscreen in the end.  I tried.

Kates looking for a swop so we shall see. I am not letting it go for nothing, too good for that, might as well just keep it. It lives as a spare car, cheap insurance and running well,  in use at the mo till I get the Mitsubishi back on the road. Just needs a new battery which I have, been poorly so not sorted yet, but will probably get done at the weekend. :)

Nice Aston front but, the proprtions are VERY wrong.

It looks like they stuck an Alfa rear on it and its large to the point where it makes the front look small and low.

To door wedge shaped for me!

Think whoever styled that one needs another performance review to re-visit thier future options!

I wouldn't turn it down if it was on offer -- but not entirely sure about it --- not really "Aston" anymore -- more "eurobox"

the first pic looks like an illagitimate love child from an alfa and an aston!

second and 3rd pics look good tho!

would have to see it in flesh to come to a firm conclusion on it but they should really stay with the AMv8 or DB9 styling as they are by far the best looking astons of any given period (compaired to other cars of the same period) but astons have always looked stylish!
