7 manual DBS volantes, or 7 in that spec?

Are you going to customise the interior on this one too?
Only 7 RHD on the planet.

The red stitching is enough for now but who knows what the future holds wink

Not many would say that Nick. You for sure and maybe the Moose if you had bribed her.

New windscreen in the DB9V at home, so nothing.

Nothing - the fuel filler flap refused to open last night so had to use the emergency pull in the boot and now the flap doesn't close - I suppose its done well to work for a whole year from new.

Oh dear. Do let us know what the cause was and maybe how AM handled you. Good luck!

Failed to fit a bit of 3M paint protection film to protect the Rapide's boot lip from fingernails/scratches. I think it was self adhesive so the soapy water technique I uwed stopped it sticking? Some instructions may have been nice supplier

Picked my V8V from AM Chichester straight from Heathrow after flying back from 3 month work stint abroad. Got to say first time using Harwoods but impressed with interaction so far and well looked after.

Good - the pricy OE ones are such a disappointment. Need to be screwed into existing carpet that is glued tight to metal floorpan (rather than better positioned to screw in to places with a recess/foam beneath) and the rears slip under the front seats as they are too floppy/ £££ too frown

Had 2 new rear tyres fitted, following an awesome track day at Blyton Park yesterday organised by AMOC. It really was a fab day at a great venue. Shame only 12 people signed up for it but that did mean lots of track time and only 4 cars on the circuit at once.

Other than 2 new rear tyres, which were due for replacement anyway, the worst part of the day was experiencing a fellow PHers V12V, quite a bit more car than my V8V in every respect but sadly don't have the funds to upgrade cry
