Nicely done Frankie, its a belter. Looks like you covered Works' sausage roll and bubbly bill from the other night all on your own biggrin.

They may not be the flagship now and the Vanquish is most probably a better car but for me the DBS is king.
Well done great purchase.

Thanks gentlemen for the comments. I hope they're not becoming too common Tony!!

John, I'll let you know how I get on with the change soon. Missing two small things from the SP10 already...boot space for golf trolley and DAB. I reckon I can live without them though!!!!!

I'd go for the DAB and go back to carrying the clubs! How/where can I get DAB?

Get a MotoCaddy Lite (not the battery version). Cost under £100 and folds up really small. I can fit one in the Porsche so it must fit the Aston. smile

Fantastic car but that plate is awful IMHO. Glad it's not yours.

.........can I ask the DBS owners on the forum is there any common issues/niggles/faults I should be checking for prior to hand over?

Frankie
How's the front looking in respect to stone chips? If it's bad then I'd definitely be looking for it to be rectified prior to hand over. My Quantum DBS had a lot of chips but the lads down in Cheltenham had every defect corrected and I had the front end protection added at the same time.....

Good choice, enjoy! smile

OT, but seeing some DBS owners are popping up on this thread, how long are the clutches lasting on average in the DBS?
