Typical, just as I get used to the carbon splitter... they make it even better by body colouring it That, for me is one of the very best looking cars out there

I suspect even works would struggle.....
Not sure if I mentioned Jonby... I don't usually go to Works when I want something done jonby said:
ha ! I'm still not sure it's doable though. Well obviously anything is doable at a price, but I think this would be far more work than the manual conversion that works charged 15k for on vanquish 1, as that was from an automated manual - a lot of work surely to change from a torque convertor ?
A HUGE amount I expect... But I did ask about a TipTronic Porsche once and it was about 7-8k to change it to a manual... so it is conceiveably possible, but the car would have to be absolutely gutted to do it!jonby said:

I reckon I could live with TT - just I appreciate that photos can be slightly misleading but for me the Virage shape - and its subsequent adoption under the DB9 moniker - was of sufficient deviation from its feline heritage for me to still want it.
I'm more of an aquiline man than an angular one, though I'm sure that once my taste catches up with modern times I will certainly join the Vanquish queue

Know what you mean.......the Vanq almost looks ahead of its time, maybe because the DBS still looks fresh IMO. It's growing on me though. I'm more of an aquiline man than an angular one, though I'm sure that once my taste catches up with modern times I will certainly join the Vanquish queue
I'll let you know later, I have one for the day today.
