Mako is a beautiful colour. Compared with all the new V12V R pictures that are now emerging the coupe form is so much more purposeful for this car. I my opinion this is the prettiest Aston ever made and that colour brings out the shape very well.

Crikey, never heard the V12V described as pretty before. Sure you've not ventured onto a DB9 thread by accident ??

More suitable adjectives could be - aggressive, purposeful, brutal, unforgiving, scary etc smile

Nope......I would definitely use the adjective 'pretty' for Louisa. Just in case she reads this thread yes

Mind you, the pair of you do look moderately simple in those hats biggrin

Jockman you are right abut the 'scary' part. I trod very gingerly yesterday and still managed to get the traction control light on a couple of times. There's a huge amount of torque that I've got to get used to.

Ian - when you pick it up, have a little chat with the Dealer about Winter Tyres and see where that discussion leads smile

Got to love a mako v12. Ever since detailing johns, I fell in love with the colour. So there are two ex factory mako v12's out there then?

Same for me . In fact the V12VC is the only Aston i would buy.


Some more pictures would be good!
