Rather Tasty classic at the British Car Day at Trentham. Sorry not anything by BMC....

1934 Aston Martin. Very nice and original.

Nah .... the Mk3 had almost no space between the rear window and bootlid, also the rear wheel arch looks wrong, and the tail lights are some horrible monstrosity compared to the ugly MK3's. I have no idea what it is but from this angle the front still looks more like a Capri

Assume it was originally one of the quite rare Mk3 coupes, which had a shorter wheelbase than the 4dr. But yeah, I dont like the changes at all.
