Cars and Coffee December 8th 2007 (56K ROFL)

Welcome to Cars and Coffee !

Today was 'Brit Car' day.

It was also 'Brit Weather' day, at 6:40 when I got in my car it told me that the temp was 44F, it was also somewhat damp - a perfect summers day back in the motherland......

So, settle down with a Cup of Tea and a packet of Biscuits and enjoy....


























































































This is a 'One Owner' from new car !













Obligatory 'arty' shot - whilst waiting at a set of lights.....



Note to all photographers - never let someone take a pic of YOU with your own camera.

This is me.....




Oops, nearly forgot, this is an old Aston Martin that nobody was even noticing.....




my New Wallpaper.....



As usual this is just a selection, check out the archive for the full set.

dunt(tm) forget to tune in next week, same time, same place.

Photo selection by Don Suiter - ErEc, Imaging - Colorado

That was a nice little gathering. I am glad I rolled out of bed. I really liked the Purple V-Tec Classic. If I am ever back down here on a Saturday I will defiantly go again. Nice to meet you and thanks for the directions. We drove up the PCH and then cut inland at Santa Monica.

Very cool cars this week. This car looks like something straight out of the movie Cars.

Thank goodness you posted pics of the Aston-I saw it in the corner of an earlier pic and was looking for it. I know it's a Zagato but is it a DB-2 or 3?-whichever-it's very rare.

Its a 1961 Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato Berlinetta , the last one to sell was sold for $2.6M

It is also a Pebble Beach Concourse winner. 1st in class - N-4

a $2+M Aston Martin cruising the freeways of the OC-I'll never be able to relate to that-it's great they still get driven (same thing for the Carerra 6-now that must have been a fun trip home!)
