There's a tasty convertible one at Hagley which is also manual... I could be tempted myself
That is the one Clarkson did the Transfagaran Highway in (and allegedly slept in wink )
Its then went on to have some Kahn mods which have since been removed by the AM dealer
It was up for sale a few months ago and has now reappeared for some reason wink
Some of the pictures they had were with the dodgy 21" wheels which thankfully they've taken off. I'm not against an ex-press car - I can point you to a youtube clip of my daily driver being driven at 150 on the autobahn before I had it and its been faultless - the Kahn mods worry me more than having Clarksons DNA on the seats

A strange investment to sell 7 years old and take a loss of £90k over that period between them? That didn't work out well did it and no enjoyment of the car!

For that kind of money, you'll be able to get yourself an ultimate edition.

If I had the money, I would get a personally, but I'm a youth. However, I think the DBS is probably the better looking car. I've detailed god knows how many astons and still, if I see a DBS driving down the road, I just think wow! Keep a look out for a carbon black edition like Mr LOTTO's. He has a black grill on his too and it looks stunning.

Hi

I agree Black is a common colour smile

But there again it's one of the colours I am looking at!

Then if I could find one it this colour instead of black!



I am also looking for a Tungsten Silver car as well!

I like the idea of an Ultimate apart fron the quilt leather on the seats etc, I would also need to see what it looks like on the roof of the Carbon edition.
