The petrol pump where the R8V10 was spotted is the "company owned company operated" one right?? on that main road?

bivin · 24th April 2011, 13:20

ShortShifter · 27th April 2011, 19:41

Had a great day today, spotted a Spanking New Grey Aston Martin V8 Vantage at Thiruvanmiyur RTO Signal on the ECR at around 2pm and the Sarvana Stores Silver E60 M5 near Express Avenue Junction at around 4pm in the afternoon !

Guys, spotted a grey Aston Martin Rapide in Nungambakkam High Road this evening... I'm told its a test car being shown to prospective customers in Chennai...

Here you go. Did not have camera at that time, so the blurry photos. First photo is of a Maserati GT. And the Rapide had the number 007!

Doubt if a test car would be MP regd, instead of MH temp. But one would never know...

Did you check on the driver, it could have been our very own Jagxf doing a test drive....as he had mentioned that he would be Td'ing the car after 2 PM yesterday.

manishasrani · 28th April 2011, 10:33

Some more pictures of the Astons !!

shamik.bose · 28th April 2011, 11:31

Manish, you made my day. Those are some stunning pictures of those gorgeous British machines. So, this would be Aston's second showroom in the country.. Nice!

//M · 28th April 2011, 13:29

Amazing pics manish and jagxf. The Rapide looks stunning. The wheels are a work of art on each Aston. Is Chennai going to have the second Aston Martin showroom in the country? Or these cars are a part of display cars for the prospective customers? AFAIK, Delhi will get the second showroom.

Hi sir, did check on the driver, though I do not know how jagxf looks, the person driving it was alone and was driving very very slowly.
Also, I thanked you by mistake. Sorry for the inconvenience.

manishasrani · 28th April 2011, 18:43

Chennai is not getting an Aston showroom yet .
It was just a private viewing.
And Jagxf@Team-BHP test drove it this morning ,
so must have been someone else driving it last evening.
