I much preferred a DBS over the V12VS Mikey and find that a totally different car and wouldn't swap back - The V12VS was certainly not my V12V plus £70k either.
How about a DBS Volante scratchchin
Been reading this Topic with an interest.
It's a difficult time to make a decision using man maths,with new models a couple of years off.
For me a DBSV is a good deal,having settled circa £100k the Vanquish Volante is circa £190K.
Value of Vanquish might tumble a bit if the new models are really good.
Not in the market for a V12VS,just like to have the extra room for the family.

Mikey what would you do with the V8VSR then? Would they take part ex of it after all your mods? I imagine it would be fairly difficult to sell on. Also don't get one in white yuck especially when there are so many fantastic colours available for them (see above).
No buy it in some god awful green yuckor something similar, much better idea obviously.

There are many different shades of green... Lime green wouldn't suit an Aston. BRG does.

As discussed before that is your opinion and you are entitled to it, in my opinion and that of many others white suits an Aston wonderfully.

Thanks Tony,that's cheered me up no end.
I shall get DBSV if the right one for me comes along.
Would have bought the mako blue one earlier this year but didn't get my act together.
Frankly my DB9V is a good car and does everything I require so I don't mind waiting.

Hook...line....sinker, I'm afraid, Kevin yes

Off course modern white suits a modern Aston. Every owner of a white Aston I know is a 'rather' classy person and doesn't even follow football nono

Well spent the day at Burghley yesterday with many different colours to ogle at, lots of positive comments on the white ones present and good to see some variety in colour on display.
Think its fair to say that the majority of colours suit an Aston but the Volcano Red of Andy Brew's V12VS looked fantastic, one day maybe.
Or the Madagascar Orange, or that mid blue, or the dark blue. So many different options to tempt this big kid.

Burghley was the first time I'd seen a Morning Frost car, looked an absolutely fantastic colour

And more importantly the wife liked both it and the Rapide S; this could get expensive!

Its a great colour, I've never seen a photo that does it justice.

I certainly like mine but can't get a good photo of it
