This looks like a Mercedes.......

Nah mate, she's called Portia!

[mcquiggd]

Nah... get a Black Cab.....

[Captain Jack]

This is surely the car you want...

[Joe Black]

How about one of these instead, at least you can fit some shopping in the back:

20k and faster than a Porsche GT

Faster than a superbike though?...we'll never know, since Top Gear decided to compare it's performance with just a 600...

Mordac, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

Personally I think the veyron is one of the most beautiful cars ever built.

I just need £850k to buy one. Anybody out there want to buy my wife and cat?

I'd have to agree with Mordac on this one. Yes the performance is incredible, but gods it's ugly. I can think of far better cars to blow £850 grand on and still have change for some serious fun.

Anyway, I want one of these. 20k and faster than a Porche GT

Funnily enough my 6310i kept turning itself off as well.

Anyway, the Bugatti Veyron. It's ugly, and it looks like it was based on a TT. Get something classy, and then crash it, like what Threaded does.

Back to the Aston then

Ferrarri's btw are not classy. They are crass, ostentatious and vulgar. Just like most of the people who drive them.

Just got myself an 8800...

Though not the Aston version...

Having had my last phone (Nokia 6310i) for the over 4 years, I decided it was time for a change...

Even though there was nothing wrong with the 6310... and could still get several days usage out of a charge... it was starting to turn itself off from time to time... and the casing was scuffed from years of being in my pocket with keys, coins etc...

Anyway, I finally plumped for the 8800... mainly because it's a beautifully built phone...

Heavy (140grms)... stainless steel... sapphire glass etc...

Also, the fact that it's NOT overloaded with features (3G, mega-pixel camera etc) was a plus for me...

All I want is something that makes calls... and at most has WAP for the football scores...

Anyway, the phone looks as good as I hoped... and despite the fact that I had to get a replacement 2 days later due to a dodgy loudspeaker... I love it...

But as always with these things, it's horses for courses...

If you want a good looking, well made "telephone"... that feels like a quality piece of equipment, go for it...

If, however, you want whizz-bang features and something more lightweight... it's not for you... you'de be better off looking at something Japanese...

FG - my hero...

[Durbs]

what you're seeing is probably full-lock on the steering

lol, try reversing the fcker out that archway too and you'll be wondering whether its money well spent.

[Joe Black]

Nice though.

But not as nice as this...

Probably had to use heli to get it there in the first place though, as what you're seeing is probably full-lock on the steering.

[expat]

Even I recognise that name and no, it's not Threaded's....

[MrsGoof]

Is that Threadeds?

[Churchill]

Aston Martin, thats just so last century

Nice though.

But not as nice as this...
