Default Silverstone in an Aston Martin

Here's a few pics of my trip to Silverstone to drive an Aston Martin V8 Vantage.

If I'm honest, they've either limited their power output or it isn't as quick as my car 0-100mph (literature stated 0-60 time of 4.9 secs so it may be the latter). Either way, definitely didn't seem as quick and the girlfriend, who drove the '008' car thought the same after driving mine for an hour on the way home that weekend

Cracking car to drive though

Looks like a good day. Who had the quickest time? You or the girlfriend?

To be honest, I'm up for a trip to the Ring if anyone's organising one, perhaps next spring so we get some half decent weather....?
