Green is a beautiful colour for these cars. Not seen enough...
Looks lovely. I would suggest you live with it as it is for a while before deciding on any changes. Each to their own, but that's a beauty to my eyes.
wise words from selon
had my DB9 volante 3 years now
changed a few things after a year or so
plenty of good people to help with advice on change choices
enjoy; put it in Sport, find some tunnels...

Thanks guys smile

Got to take it for my first proper drive today from London to Leicester so got to stretch its legs and see how the drive is on open roads.

Must say I don't find it lacking in power as much as I first thought - it will just take some getting used to revving it high... it's been so long since I've had an N/A car that I feel like I'm going to break it every time I get high up in the revs!

It'll stay standard until after the summer anyway as I did kind of push my budget for this car and the Mrs would kill me for spending more so soon!

If anyone may fancy a wheel swap though I'd consider it - these are in perfect condition.
