Hi guys been away for weekend, after Friday's Kent meet, which was great.
Drove to g/f's parentals & had a play with her Dad's toys. Also did some pic taking with ZS, Noble & Aston Martin Vanquish V12...then included the Range Rover later.
Here they are:

just awesome! i am so jealous! i hope you are with your girlfriend for more than her old man's cars tho :)

would the aston be sir's preferred choice? :D

I love her to death Sammy, the cars are just a bonus!!!!!!!!!

Hmmmmmmmm, I prefer the Aston for longer journeys, but the Noble for a couple of hours of foot down away you go!!!
Obviously the Noble corners on rails, but on a straight line, the AM is far superior..

The exhaust note from the AM V12 is superb & guess what......they both have push start engine buttons!!!!

Noble for me.... but all are very nice cars.

Boot Hill Bandit

You is one lucky fella! I can only hope that in my wildest dreams Karen and me take a turn for the better......she drives me wild I tell ya!

Those cars are just freakin awesome! I want a go in the Aston so bad! I will leave the Mondeo where it is though *runs out the room very quickly* hehe!

the noble is sweet, had the privelege of seeing one of these close up and they are awesome, love the MG too!

Hehe, Aston engine I believe is basically 2 3ltr Noble engines banged together & refined????

You never Jim, when you go to visit Karen, she could have an Aston waiting for you!!!

I must admit, when I first met Laura, I had no idea that her Dad owned such cars. It wasnt until picking her up for the house I was shocked to find these parked there!!!........made my day!!!!

Boot Hill Bandit
30-09-07, 10:53 PM
Well if she'd have mentioned them to you before it got all serious she may have had her doubts I guess.

Marrying someone for money/wealth isn't good but it does happen......as you said.......the cars are a bonus to be able to use/see!

Karens folks are rich apparently.......but I couldn't give two hoots about that.......its Karen I want......not the money.......I still can't work out what she sees in me though?! But she says she loves me and thats 3 words I don't hear very often at all and means a lot to me. Come on the damn 9th!

That Aston looks a lot of fun......I had no idea that it was 2 Ford/Mazda V6's nailed together......thats a new one on me!

Wow! The AM and Noble look stunning but I have to say the ZS doesn't look out of place either.

Nice cars especially the ZS.

Wondered who owned the other Black ZS on Friday.

Should be better next month in the light.......

Boot Hill Bandit

I cant remember Mick, given up......I think it was about a mascot type thingy mutt????, or was an engine start button. They all blend into one mate.
I am up, because neighbours have builders in next door again making a right noise, so woke me up off nights.

Time will come, when the ZS will be started @ 03:30 - 04:00 time for call out!!!!!!!! Revenge is sweet!!!

Boot Hill Bandit

I have also had a machine strapped to me for 24hrs, testing my blood pressure. Seems a bit high at moment after being found on routine examination. So I have had that gripping me in places quite strange and taking readings. Good job I didnt get a h**d *n!!!!, that would have confused it!!!!!

Lack of kip & Billy the Builder next door......Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!

stamford
02-10-07, 12:26 PM
I'm sure those machines can take into account the 'morning glory' blip in the readings! :laugh:

Boot Hill Bandit
02-10-07, 12:28 PM
I thought it was natural for everyone to wake up with a hard on? shows you have good blood pressure doesn't it?? :hmmm:

Mind you.........if you woke up next to your bird and she also had a hard on thats something to worry about I guess.

That's what happens when you are in love and they are so far away.... :( Believe me, i know. Been there a few times already, but it still won't stop me. After all we now have the wonders of e-mail, IM, Skype, 'Snail mail' & telephone..... how did we survive without it? :hmmm:

PMSL Jim. Brightened my day up mate!!!!

If I do wake up with a hard on & Laura isnt here, I normally run up & down Shepperton High Street, shouting 'where can i bury this monster'!!!!!!!!!!....try it in Stavanger mate!!!

Boot Hill Bandit
02-10-07, 12:33 PM
Well in the good old days.........we had carrier pigoens........the only problem I would have is that a pigoen is small........and if I got hungry I'd shoot it.........in which case.........the message that bird would have been delivering wouldn't give me the message.

Luckily...........I don't eat computers or phones........so safe in the knowledge I can get messages we can have lots of phone sex and be happy :happy:

Boot Hill Bandit
02-10-07, 12:42 PM
Oh yes thats right......now I remember :hmmm:

Aston Martin = Ford Mondeo
Noble = Ford Mondeo
MG ZS 180 = Pure class and British thinking!

What do we learn from this??........thats right........buy a ZS180 and not a Ford Mondeo :D
