I'm alright - just don't like black leather, although that blue stitching does look good smile But seeing at 99% of Astons have it, I'm the minority!

Black and blue just looks like a bruise though frown

Fantastic colour, am I correct in thinking it's very similar to Monaco blue as it seems to look that way in photos. rotate

By googling Monaco blue... no, it's nothing like that. Cobalt is a bright, vibrant, electric blue.

I actually think, as Silverstone referred to, that if you go for a really vibrant non grey/silver/black exterior colour, expecially on a soft top (which I know this isn't !), I can understand far more going for a black interior, especially as in this instance the blue stitching works really well

I also think that two tone interiors are rather hit & miss in the 2 seaters, so whilst I understand where you're coming from Yeti, especially with a 4 seater yourself, some of your suggestions for this car would just look too bitty, all as ever IMHO !
Agreed.

The interior works well with the vivid exterior.

I'm tempted to go look at this over the weekend being my 2nd local dealer. But. Personally this car needs lightweight cf seats and alcantara steering wheel not leather.
It does have blue stitching but as Nick has coloured his seat inserts red, this car is crying out for blue alcantara seats inserts.
Vin is 817 if anyone is interested, a new one for my register.
Methinks ill wait for a v12v with the carbon packs and black grille as I think they look shweeet!!

Any more news on V12VR production Alwin - last time you posted on the matter, it was 90 odd - have they all been made now ? And if so, do you have a definitive number per country

I originally heard 40 odd anticipated for the UK, then more recently 24 or 26, then dealer this week told me just 17 for the UK out of the total of 101
Up until today, 96 have been built. Will post more stats as soon as we reach 101.

I currently have 44 UK cars listed, but that includes 5 AML cars. So 39 UK customer cars.

BTW: a preliminary public V12VR register can be found on my v12vr site :

(not complete yet and looks like st, but hey it's something...)

There are a few unregistered cars (V12 Coupes) at the dealerships at present with some VERY substantial discounts to be had, but of course being brand new, they aren't advertised anywhere so you need to call to ask ;-)

Alwin to confirm car 010 has obsidian interior with silver stitch, carbon ack and heated sports seats. If you need anymore spec details let me know.
