Why do so few, if any, car manufacturers care about Sexy? Have a look around. Which modern cars make your pant area tingle? Almost none. Maybe the Aston Martin Vantage, and that’s about it.
That’s the 1967 Toyota 2000 GT. Yes, Toyota. And what do they make now? The Yaris, the Verso and the Vasectomy.
A rather alarming thing arose at the MPH dinner, which the whole Overdrive team attended a while back. And it wasn’t the fact that Ross, our old operations manager, can’t go for 12 minutes without thinking of something for Ciro and me to do, or that he can go a whole 7 without thinking about something we haven’t done yet, that we said we’d do. Last year Monday.
The Aston Martin Bulldog. The only car (n)ever named after a dog.
Nor was I alarmed that some ass-hat in a bandana bid R200 000 for a signed Pelé shirt. Alarm was a distant galaxy when Ciro tried to leverage in on Ross’ and my heated football banter by saying something singularly incorrect and bereft of anything to do with Bolton Wanderers or what colour corner flags should be (proving indisputably that his life is vastly more varied and “outdoorsy” than ours).
That's Serge trying to get his mate's valuables out of the car.
Don’t you just love the interwebs? Yesterday we published the sad story of the wrecked Aston Martin in Sandton JHB, and today, thanks to couple hundred twitterers, we’ve got in touch with someone who was involved in the whole sorry saga.
Aren’t test drives with dealership blokes awkward enough? This has to be one of our worst nightmares. Taking a car out for a test drive and absolutely destroying it. In this case, all R3.5million worth of shiny new DBS. The collision took place on the Grayston offramp, involving six other luckless motor vehicles. We hope the poor sod was just in the wrong place at the wrong time and Aston’s insurance covers the damage. And if the poor guy was only a potential customer, we reckon he’s probably going to take a nice little Aston home with him after all this.
