Anyone remember the Aston Martin Mountain Bike

[legrandefromage]

If I remember correctly (and it is through layer upon layer of Merrydown cider) it was over £4k to buy.

Considering the average Aston buyer, that's got to be a bit wasted on them surely? :shock:

What's wrong with Aston buyers, eh?

Absolutely nowt. Just an average age of about 50 and a liking for fine food (with the physique to match) doesn't really sit well with the image of them in tight Lycra sweating their n@ts off on a light weight mountain bike.

I mean, James Bond's cool......I just can't see him in bib shorts and a camelback! :shock:

Age = No
Physique = No
Fine food = Yes
Lycra = Nah, I'm baggies all the way

I did say 'average' owner. There's always an exception that proves the rule.

Show off! (Only kidding)

You can get Ferrari Bicycles now as well as Landrover.
Now a Reliant glassfibre bike that would have been interesting, could have been marketed by Trotters Independent Trading !

I think I'd rather have the Lotus mtb of the early 90s instead

There's a bike for sale at Aston Sales Kensington:

£10K – pretty hefty, but I think one was sold for about £9K at an auction last year.

I've heard of them going for £4k at auction.
It was the DOGSBOLX frame that was used on this. I've got a feeling that the serial number on this bike is the same as a number plate that turns up on a lot of expensive cars on top gear.
I'm still hoping to find one NOS one day!
