Last Friday a Johannesburg man crashed a R3.5-million Aston Martin DBS while taking it for a test drive. The collision took place on the Grayston offramp when the Aston pranged into six other luckless motor vehicles. Nobody was injured but I’m sure the driver’s ego was just as dented as the poor DBS.
The crash is NOT the horrible part.
The horrible part is it a YELLOW Aston Martin DBS. Yellow? What on earth where they thinking?

Saw this a long time ago, maybe a year even.
Remember thinking what idiot saleseman would let someone take that kind of car for a test drive in public traffic.

Ja, I started a thread about this back in 'Nam.
When I saw the thread title I thought rusty finally got hold of an 8.ta employee.
The yellow looks bad, but I wouldn't have spent R3.5 million on an Aston in the first place, irrespective of the colour.

They all look the same! I'd MUCH rather buy a Quattroporte or a 355 Spider.

Either that guy is a huge plonker or he has a great sense of humour.

Which made it NOT ugly?
What it did is take the Ugliest car currently made and combine it with the back end of a baboon
