Placed a deposit in Jan 2022 but picked this up on Friday from OPC Silverstone as an insurance policy which had 98% of the options I was after including LED headlights.
I was going for Carmine Red but the Aventurime Green and red roof combo really looks great in my opinion and a bit different.
Came with warranty until August 2025.
Will leave my deposit with Leeds OPC and see what happens!!

Locked in my final spec today. Was going past OPC Colchester earlier in the week so popped in for a quick look at some things. Ended up scrapping the Shark Blue, which it turns out is practically identical to Audi's Turbo Blue (might even be the same) and seems to be everywhere. Also decided a shouty colour wasn't me, as my daughter said I don't radiate 'big dick energy' (as she calls it) required to pull off noisy colours.
What I did see was Aventurine Green in the flesh and loved it, so that's the new choice. Also scrapped the leather trim and the fancy stitching, and instead ordered the upgraded Race-Tex/Extended Leather trim. Changed the wheels to Satin Platinum, splattered some yellow details inside (I love the yellow dials and have had them before) and I'm happy. Managed to shave over £3k off the previous spec.

Not to everyone's taste but I think it works. Should be here in January.

It's definitely a colour which is hard to judge from the configurator. When I saw one in person it made sense, doing that nice trick of looking different depending on the lighting, which is why is also shows off the car's curves too. Big fan of the Platinum wheels.
I've gone down the subtle route too, with the imminent demise of new sports cars I'll be holding onto this one indefinitely and don't want a colour I may tire of.
I've got another few weeks before I lock in, the only thing I'm currently considering is reinstating the model designation on the doors as it's currently fully debadged. Easier to remove than put back I guess!

Al_Ra (on here) has a beautiful CGTS in a similar spec to yours. Saw it in the metal, and thought it looked exquisite, ahead of chickening out and getting my BGTS in Agate.
Think black calipers will look better than red if you don't mind paying a rather disgraceful sum for them to be painted.

just my opinion, the callipers should be black as I think the red callipers clash with the yellow inside. Too many different accent colours. Either way, we allJefferson Steelflex said:

Out of interest, when did you place your deposit and then get your allocation.What I did see was Aventurine Green in the flesh and loved it, so that's the new choice.

I have AG but with silver wheels. Very Aston Martin-esk in colour.
