Some photos from Monday. Despite 9hrs with the car to ourselves it wasn’t great for photos as we had to shoot in the middle of a very sunny day. I did my best to combat it though and tried a couple of new things.
Awesome awesome car, tunnel runs with top down are epic.

Aston Martin have just released two new pieces of rolling art loaded with V12 warheads, and two of the first in Australia are now on their promo tour around the country to get bums in seats.
Solitaire Automotive are the Adelaide dealers, and invited us on an Aston Martin drive event to properly experience the new models, and have a play with the existing line-up.
We turned up around 9:30am to be greeted by Louise, Nigel, and four beasts of Britain.

We have had some amazing cars at the Burrows Days over the years, but I really think the September event took the cake. Two cars in particular drew the attention of all in pit lane – one is the most outrageously styled cars of our time, whilst the other marked an era in racing where only brave men dare tread!

Another fine day had by all. Ok, well most anyway… the Viper sprang a minor oil leak after my first session in it, an Aston Martin’s clutch let go, and the day ended with someone putting a car into a wall… so it probably could have been a little better from some perpectives!
