As a member of an older generation it is painful to see you let that car go. I had visions of you building a complete collection of Lamborghinis and you already had a couple of the hardest ones filled in. Loved that car, sad to see it go but I get it - you can't have everything and you need to follow your priorities, never let others dictate your values!

[@Max377e8]

@RonaldSimkin its not a car worth keeping for. Now best investment cars are old hybrid cars like 918,p1 and etc. Countach has less maintain cost but it doesn't grow up in value much now. Only ferrari know how to do that game while lying about production numbers

Hey James, is super cool you were able to give the Aston some beans, here in the UK, Astons are too common. Super glad you were able to drive one and experience it! It’s just a shame that the switch gear is all Mercedes. Even the indicator (blinker) stalks are out of a Mercedes A-class. Not sure what Aston are doing but for me it cheapens the brand and lowers the appeal of them!
