Arnold Clark, where normally only the aftersales is bull... 🤐

Yup.

Worst manual gearboxes ever. Eeeeever. Ever ever ever. Ever.

How come?

That yellow exterior isn’t exclusive, but mercifully the very yellow LC500 I’ve just spent a week with was grey on the inside...

That somebody had sliced out half the airbag harness and the entire steering column harness in my JDM Isuzu VehiCROSS and pulled the airbag light bulb.

I’ve always felt that the “DNA” crap was a hangover from Aston’s “handcuffs and leather undies” period...

The FK2 CTR Estate (wagon) version was at the event too. I didn’t have time to drive either... :(

Yep, Amphi-Ranger. Autocar ever Road tested one way back in the midsts of time.

Do I have to? I’m British.

You understand that those ladies are only around on the press days? They’re there to attract the “Roy Lanchester” old school journos and the Italians.
