No. I had a DB7, chopped it in for a Jag X type instead... :( Cheaper, better economy, bigger boot)... But dull as a post by Agent Austin. :o

Wow

Why did you trade it in...

Aston Martin!

Post by: Stuart2007 on January 26, 2010, 19:35:54
Something to do with it being 12/13 years old...   Even an Aston has its day.

TBH with you, a DB7 is basically a Mondeo floor pan with a Jag XK8 body shell... It has an engine that is made by Ford...

They are a collection of spare parts with an AML badge. You pay for the name, that's all... Servicing is very expensive and they aren't therefore suited to high mileage like a X type.

Would I buy another one? Oh yes... but only when I can get myself a DBS or even nearly new DB9...

Post by: McGherkin on January 26, 2010, 20:33:56
I'd like a DBS, but I'd probably end up going for a Caterham or a Clio V6, and do some race preparation... I'm more about speed than comfort...
Title: Re: Ship Sim Extremes-Release Date.

A clio....  :doh:
Title: Re: Ship Sim Extremes-Release Date.
Post by: McGherkin on January 26, 2010, 20:47:10
Don't underestimate the V6, the power to weight of a good, prepped one is simply awesome... I'd like to do something like this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A60foAe65SM) with it, with some EXTREME slimming down...

Like to see your Aston do that...
Title: Re: Ship Sim Extremes-Release Date.
Post by: Stuart2007 on January 26, 2010, 21:04:57
Without even looking at it, I can guess that it is something that no self-respecting Aston owner would want to try.

It is OK, McG. I won't hold your youth and naivety against you.

Post by: McGherkin on January 26, 2010, 21:20:52
Bearing in mind these cars usually race on grass...

Edit:

How's this for handling?

Metro 6R4 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8bO7OfUgqg&feature=related) and Renault 5 Turbo (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xt-y_2EYiow&feature=related).

I rest my case.
Title: Re: Ship Sim Extremes-Release Date.
Post by: Stuart2007 on January 26, 2010, 21:29:45
Quite clearly you aren't going to do that in a DB7... ::)

This isn't all that hard though. That car has probably got no weight in the nose, just like a Santa Pod drag car... That said, it appears to have a tad more power than a Mini Metro! ;D

Title: Re: Ship Sim Extremes-Release Date.
Post by: Stuart2007 on January 26, 2010, 23:52:49
see edit.

The 6R4 wasn't really related to the production Metro and as such Leyland used a bit of a cheat to make it qualify as a rally car. The 5turbo was a big Spambot blouse car and is laughable at best.

Title: Re: Ship Sim Extremes-Release Date.
Post by: McGherkin on January 27, 2010, 08:04:27
Okaay then, I never said the 6R4 was even remotely like the road car, but there are a lot of similarities to a Clio V6, and these cars are really about handling. Stupidly big engines are a bonus...
Title: Re: Ship Sim Extremes-Release Date.
Post by: Stuart2007 on January 27, 2010, 16:34:58
Everyone to their own, of course... But I'd find it hard to think of bond driving a clio...

Good bye!
Title: Re: Ship Sim Extremes-Release Date.
Post by: McGherkin on January 28, 2010, 08:07:27
Aston Martin DB7= £80,000, Clio V6=£25,000



Princess P42= >£500,000

and that's the smallest boat they do.

The maths doesn't really add up...
Title: Re: Ship Sim Extremes-Release Date.
Post by: Captain. Mitch on January 28, 2010, 20:24:18
Hello!

Hehe, there are cheeper yacht than that... or you can buy the used one...

But if the man is driving the Aston Martin it's clear that he have a lot of money  ;D :D he can buy himself an yacht or just an boat.

I would be setisfied with an boat, that when the cruisers come to my town i can get clooser...  ;D

Good bye!

Well it's pretty much resolved now, it's June 6th 2010(we hope!)

If Vstep changes it, I'm sure this topic will be put to better use (assuming it isn't dead by then!)

And I wouldn't buy a yacht second hand, There are a lot of have-a-go nouveau riche who buy big yachts, and drive them with no experience of ship handling at all...

They wonder why the boat breaks and sell it on cheap...

Yes it was, the GTR Pace car is unlocked by winning the Real Circuit Tours championship in the extreme hall. I have literally hundreds of pics of it...

Unfortunately no real life replica exists that I know of, but if I had the money, I'd build it.

I use it for drifting, mainly...
