Gumball Stops Rolling
One of the select high-performance cars which participated in the 2004 Gumball Challenge was delivered to Aston Workshop for a ‘post rally’ fettle recently.

The liveried and bug-splattered 6.3. litre Virage was delivered to us just as it finished the 3 day trip to Monaco. She successfully completed the gruelling journey having been prepared by Aston Workshop, although a little front splitter damage was received, along with a few more miles – but she is proof of our thorough and professional preparation services.

She did better than the Ferrari Enzo which allegedly crashed, and the Ford Escort Cosworth rally car which flipped at over 100mph.

Aston Workshop also prepared a DB7 Vantage for the trip, which was held in May.

The next instalment of the Gumball series, the 8000, starts from London on the 18th September.
