Deposited 2 days ago on this and due to take delivery this Saturday. Really excited is an understatement.

2015/15 morning frost white from Aston Martin Reading.

Photos show it with the spare winter wheels and tyre set

Stunning car!
The V12 sounds fantastic too. Great choice.
H R Owen, Pangbourne are nice chaps to deal with.

What made you change your mind from the Coupe to the Roadster?
For what it's worth, I prefer the roadster without the white detailing.

Thank you. Nver had a roadster before and really fancied it to be honest, plus I had a test drive in the v12 sportshift and really really liked it. Contrary to what the road testers have said I found it to be superb

Awesome, I very nearly got a v12s coupe from them last year but ended up with the 599 instead.

On the way home go right out of the garage, not left to m4, then left when you get through streatley. You probably did that as part of your test drive, cracking bit of road heading to the A34 that way! smile

Also, when you go through lower basildon, 2 miles north of Pangbourne, stick it neutral and give it a rev once you're past the murco garage, It'll get me out of bed! smile

Enjoy!!
Thanks. They are delivering it to me by covered truck on Saturday and that's the first time that i will be seeing it in the flesh. They drove their demo V12VSR all the way up me me in the midlands last saturday for a long test drive and I loved it. Can not fault their effort.

I kind of agree. I see 2 of these quite regularly and love them apart from the OEM wheels.

The car with a wheel similar style and colour to the winter makes the car look perfect. Are the winters the same size?
I'm not actually sure if they have exactly the same tyre size size to be honest

It is due to be delivered tomorrow from Reading to me in the midlands by covered truck. The dealer surprised me with this video which he took once the car was fully detailed. A nice touch by the Aston Martin reading and sales exec Aaron.

Really excited for this and hope the weather is like it was today.
