Newer DBS

[V8 Animal]

Replaced my manual for a 2012 TT2 Volante
Had a call from Stratstone they had a hardly used volante just come in pop over to have a look.
Easy really a colour that will be easy to maintain low miles and FSH newer than I was thinking off.
However it's a Carbon Black Edition so I thought it was a worthy shout.
Managed to wangle a extra year warrant too.
Didn't even test drive just said ok!!

Drove it tonight for the first time and it's close to my BMW auto box but not exactly the same.
Did enjoy using the paddles takes me back To my Vantage just need to stop lifting off before gear change.
Trim levels are better and the sat nav is very up to date.
Seats are firmer and the roof is excellent.
B&O is very good but I think it needs tweaking.

Anyway before I get bked here's a couple for now!

2k miles thats a new car , well done superb!

It came a bit early for me and newer than I was budgeting for but I couldn't turn it down.
How many are going to come on the market with that type of mileage and mint condition and in Carbon?
Cheers and a happy bunny.

Never had anything but excellent service there personally. Did you have to contribute towards the extra year of warranty or manage to get it included in the asking price?

I left happy Skint though.

I thought it was black,,,now I'm not so sure. Whatever it is, its a DBS and wonderful.

Yep it's not easy and it makes it harder its a Carbon Black Edition so assume it's black.
It is Ceramic Grey a special paint I believe.
Difficult to capture as it comes out black most of the time, the best shot is the first one.
Cheers

got to say love that new DBS!!! best model colour everything!!!

If had a better back seat i wouldn't hesitate.

I think its gonna be a new Californian T in a couple of years for me.

Cheers mate or should I say Dad
The back seat is great for her handbag and that's it.
Gone from the very early model to the very lastest model.

Pretty sure its a Carbon Black Edition in Quantum Silver

I'm happy to go with that. I don't think I have two pics of Vesuvius where the colour exactly matches,,its a mystery to me.

I contacted Stratstone who kindly sent me a PDF of the build spec etc.
And it is Ceramic Grey.

Cheers
