ScoobySounds Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 had rather a nice day yesterday with some aston martins, thought i'd share - one of the best days at 'work' ever! check out the sound of this DBS, someone told me it has two mondeo engines in it.. that can't be right can it? wouldn't aston make their own engine? Who knows about these things? dbs fast dbs passes db5 start db5 run and the DB5 isn't too siht either.. its not a quick car but is still drool worthy. I was told what it costs, and you don't even get rockets or ejector seats! more pics here

Who knows about these things? Nice!! *drool* Yep that engine info sounds about right... Ford owns Aston Martin.. and the V12 engine in the Astons is not much more than a couple V6 Ford mondeo engines stuck together end to end as one big V12 lump... Then tuned properly! My neighbour across the road/field has a DB7 Vantage.. Looks nice but he needs a slap evertime he goes out of his drive and floors it... Cannae be good for the cold engine.. The car get's picked up once a year and put on the back of a fully branded Aston Martin Trailer and taken off for it's service then delivered back to his door a few days later..

ScoobySounds Posted February 7, 2008 Author Posted February 7, 2008 one of the coppers helping to lock the roads off was a right wind-up merchant and told the locations assistant that the db5 DOES have an ejector seat! She went round tellling everyone all day!
