Many thanks for all the nice comments guys. Much appreciated.

The colour is actually Sea Storm. I wanted something a little different but wasn't brave enough to go yellow tang or cinnabar orange.

Regards Burghley I can make it Ed, It's my daughter's birthday on 3rd July and I do have a pass!

Edited to say I now have a pass and will be there...daughter is of with mum for a spa day!

Great story! And congratulations. I like the colour. Buying an Aston is definitely a heart decision, I have looked at various cars recently from Porsches to GTRs, they really are unique in what they offer.

Well done FB.

1. V8V SP10
2. DBS
3. A German car.
4. V12VS

You are certainly a very good AML customer.

Your reference about being 'let out', is something almost worthy of a mention, as a feature in their sales brochures.
Last week when I wanted to drive out from a filling station, immediately cars in both directions stopped. Everyone seems to just love Astons.

Not many just to Silverstone and back. How was the GT8. Has Mr Stanton earned his bonus? wink

That's a nice string of ownership, and a good looking car! I really like the white contrast stitching, probably the one thing I was a bit gutted about that my Vantage didn't have.

And you're not driving to to Monaco for what reason again?! Love it, as mentioned on the previous page both the colour and the carbon fibre grill are stunning, a real work of art.

They go really well around the 'ring y'know wink

Congratulation on a stunning car.
Can I ask you to have a look at the third photo down, I opened up your photo and was looking at the exhaust tips as I am getting a set of these fitted together with a set of the Black lightweight wheels.
On your third photo at the underside just below the passenger side exhaust tip it looks as though the trim is not sitting flush and is needing a slight adjustment
Thought I would mention it.

Enjoy your new V12S

Thanks for the spot. Just been to have a look and all is fine. The angle of the picture is picking up the gearbox tray. Trim is fine.
