bump for functioning pictures

[Captain McFunk]

You got any of those pics in high res? I`m looking for photo "114" for a wallpaper. That thing is beautiful.

[imported_sal329]

The car looks great, I can not believe how bad it was leaving the factory

I think Barry Grifffin needs to be fired for letting such a high end vehicle leave his plant in such a poor fashion! I`m going to forward this thread to the local Aston Rep to look into this. How many miles did this vehicle have?

[Thomas Dekany]

Fantastic outcome Paul. I have had 2 Astons and they were nothing like this car. :bow:bow
