No, actually I dont but the words "I own an Aston Martin" will no longer ever have the same meaning.

Even James Bond needs a mini-car to get around town. Suitably appointed, of course.

I read this is Toyota based. I wonder if it's actually UK-made/assembled. Imagine that, a British car that could make it across a parking lot without needing an overhaul.

Such wags, you Colonial cousins... so behind the times... do take a seat before reading, though...

James...? (Yes, M'lud...?) Just where did you put my copy of the Times, and there is no ice in my Malt; this just will not do...

There used to be three quintessentially British things that could be said on the BBC at any time throughout their history - The Times, Rolls Royce and Harrods... none of them are now British, excluding location...  :P

Just one more reason to say "things ain't the same" :sad:

I like it! Park your real Aston outside town and use this to get into London/Monte Carlo/Amsterdam/...

I know some guys who bought an Opel, but replaced the front by a Vauxhall one. That's the British version of Opel. Maybe you can buy a Toyota and only some AM parts? Could be nice:)

In the mean time I'm happy with my car/gay icon the Twingo:D

Cute car, even cites Aston Martin in places.
