  1. Just finished judging the Royal Lymington Yacht Club annual photo competition on Zoom. When did I become posh enough to be associated with the Royal Lymington Yacht Club in any shape or form? :joy::joy::joy:

  8. I had a Bonneville that looked just like that. Rode if from Cali to Colorado mostly on back roads. I liked it!
     
  9. Out on Greg; a few miles from home. Should have put knobblies on though:confused:

  10. Got very distinctive sound and for 6ltr V12 it spins up very quickly and is silky smooth with masses of torque. Fuel consumption won't be quite as much fun though. :confused:

  11. I enjoyed a convertible Corvette with a 5.7, but petrol was cheaper then! I swapped an XKR Jag for it (ugly step sister of your Aston)
     
  12. Love a big lump, had a 6.6 Trans Am back in the 80s as a daily driver but still living at home with parents I could afford it, also ran 5ltr TPI Trans Am through the 90s for another daily drive. Aston is replacing a Daimler Super 8 which is a lovely old beast but it's time for a Change now.

  13. Drained off fuel from tanks, removed petcocks and cleaned and re-fitted on BSA, Ducati, and OIF Bonneville for the winter layover. The T'Bird is still ready to go, plus the 1948 500 Triumph is undergoing gearbox re-build, i have assembled 3 boxes now from bits and don't know which one to fit.
