Well done. I love ceramic grey. The paint explodes when the sun hits it.
I've only had it 3 weeks Paddy, so am yet to see how good the colour actually looks in sunlight biglaugh

Excellent choice of Vantage Octavarium. I absolutely love my SP10. Congratulations!

The Ceramic Grey paint is indeed stunning and looks even better when Paddy has worked his magic on it.

Thank you Pete. If you are Burghley bound then I will have to compare your 'Paddy-fettled' car with mine. Let's hope the sun is shining.

CONGRATULATIONS Octavarium!!

Like many people here, I had an idea of what grey paint should look like in my head. But that colour of yours is amazing. Seems similar to Quantum Silver in that it can go really dark to really light depending on the light?

Great photos, hope you're enjoying it! smile

I couldn't be happier Nijius. The sun is out today (for a short while at least here oop north), and it looks gorgeous.

I've been following your post with interest. Enjoy that carbon black V12 beastie

Is it tomorrow you pick it up ? With it being my first Aston, I couldn't sleep properly for 3 nights prior to collection day.

Yes, I'll be there 8.30am on the dot. Actually I'll probably loiter around for a few hours in anticipation... wink

This is my second Aston but I'm still very hyped about it! I've taken the whole day off so I can drive it along all the country roads that we don't get in central London.
