Aston Martin
Proudly supports terrible french cars
I saw this very limited edition car for sale, it was in Bradford as an MOT failure at £300
The 2014 MOT history said “bodywork damaged” it appears that the car has been grazed on the near side, which I think took the wing mirror off and left the rare bodykit slightly bruised. It failed two months ago on the rear axle, nsr shock and a front tyre. In theory, £80 for a used axle, £35 for two rear shocks, £30 for a tyre. A bit of labour to shove the new axle on, a new mot and we should be a cheap fix...
Clue number 1: They made this limited edition in three colours, mine is the least rare. Yet, the best colour. (Allegedly less than 100 imported into the UK, because they didn’t register them properly with the DVLA we don’t know how many are left.)
Clue numero two: Its the stupidest looking thing ive ever seen, but I’ve always wanted one. I found forum posts from years ago stating I need one of these immediately!!!
Clue numberino thrice: The tyre valve covers are always missing.
Clue nombre quatre: It makes the Cactus look like a beige Hyundai Elantra.
Clue number 5: I laugh every time I see a picture of one.

Onto an Alessi history.
They made them in three colours.
Orange with orange seats which is the least rare, but the best one obviously.
Black with green seats.
Green with green seats, the rarest.
They’re based on the top of the range Eleganza and unfortunately registered as such. So we’ve know idea how many are left. Maybe 1 or 2 a year pop up for sale.
1.2 8v Eleganza £8,490
1.2 8v Alessi £8,995
1.2 8v 4x4 £9,495
1.4 16v 100HP £9,995
This was the list price, however they sat on dealers forecourts for months and were heavily discounted.
.....
The axle was fucked, so I fitted a new axle, springs and shocks from a fat arse Jellymold.
I needed a new plastic panel, so I raped a black Alessi for its exterior cladding and I took the green interior while I was there.
MOT next week.......
