you can also use this on the leather, carpets, anything you fancy
Thanks paddy I have some of this after you first recommended it here and it's been a very useful product! I'll use it on the steering wheel too yes

Picked up a drone this week, so went out to have a play. Images seem a bit grainy, but quite happy for a first attempt

New Knob & Wheel!

Put a nice alcantara steering qheel on this weekend, and a friend of mine covered the knob in the same colour alcantara.

Went for black stitching for wheel so it doesn't get dirty too quick and kept the same white stitching as the rest of the car for knob.

Have to say it does feel soooo much nicer to drive now!



Nice, do you think I can do it for a rapide? how much it was?

Can be done for any car knob / wheel / trim section.

The wheel came as it was, but I go the knob done for £100

Is it a "AM Factory" alcantara wheel or customized? If customized, how much was it and how long does it take?

Thank you

Went to the AMOC Devon & Cornwall Club Evening last night and saw LBS' Le Mans wrap for his car and it looked even better in real life than in pictures



Love driving in the dark with the roof down, the V12 sounds even better, and not that often that you get to do it in this country.

Can't wait for the trip to Le Mans with 10 other Astons- more pictures to follow.

You're right, why was I surprised!

Great roads as you say. Very glad of the big brakes when I came round a corner just south of Tain to find two big coos coming straight at me. Thankfully the wifie on the other side of the road had stopped and I managed to get round them or it was burgers with carbon fibre chips....
