Car ride


I'm not a big car fan, but sometimes, when I see one with a nice or original shape, then I'm tempted to take a photo. That's what I did last evening at Place Saint Germain, where Tribes, the event I told you about  Wednesday, took place. FYI this is an Aston Martin, but that is all I can tell you about it!

  1. I'm not an Aston expert, but I think it's a DB6. Gorgeous.

  3. Bond...James Bond. Okay, couldn't resist. I agree with the above comments. Definitely an eye-catcher and worth using the zoom. I didn't realize that you weren't "a big car fan" Eric. By this photo you took, one would not know it.

  4. I'm certainly in the dark when it comes to cars. Just give me a car that has good tires, and the motor runs and I'm happy. I do like the red on this car!

  5. It is an Aston-Martin DB6. The DB6 was launched at the 1965 London Motor Show. (DB stands for David Brown, the long-time boss of Aston-Martin.)

  8. Only a very brave soul would dare to park a car as nice as this on a Paris street - I hope he didn't get a dent or a ding!

  9. Very nice ... but almost too much for Paris! That said the pleasure of driving, outside Paris ... Let me think...

    So Eric, is it bv's car ? LOL (or maybe I should not laugh, if it is really his!...) ;)

  16. Yikes—I've been "outed" by Eric. :~} I think the owner of this car would love your photo, mon vieux!
    It does take nerve to park a bright red Aston Martin on the streets of Paris (it also takes great parking karma to get a spot like this). BTW, I just saw a used on online for only $235,000 (!).

  17. I am a big fan of the cobblestone street. The car is here and now but will never last as long as the cobblestones.

  18. Bonne Anniversaire, Alexa! And belated Bonne Anniversaire Drummond!
