Hi can you tell me which magazine you mean? Is it the official AM one? Because I'm reading that and can find nothing about DBS in it unless you are referring to the new new dbs...?
It was in AM Quartely, I think it is an official AMOC publication (so not from AM itself). AWV12 said:

Great, did expect your publication in AMOC magazine already last year, but let's wait and see. Will your table also differentiate in TT and Manual gearbox? And in LHD and RHD?
Great article (from Tim et al) in the latest (August 2018) edition of AM Quarterly Magazine about detailed DBS Coupe production numbers! (LHD/RHD, manual/TT, colours, etc)! Thx! Hope there will be a DBS Volante follow up also! :-)
Happy to see there are only 44 DBS Volantes with Manual Gearbox, of which only 10 in mainland Europe (assume those are all LHD) and only 8 RHD (of which 4 are press cars, including the famous car shown in the Top Gear roadtrip to Romania).
In the article also the number of Carbon Black and Carbon Edition Volantes is mentioned.

And in the current AM Quarterly (Winter 2018/2019) the second part shows all details about the DBS Volante production numbers! Thx TIm et al for the superb work researching this!

I can’t afford the AM Quarterly. And chance you can post up Carbon Black Numbers please.

Many thanks
Does it split down to Uk cars?
Only for the Manual CB Volantes (all LHD, so none in the UK I assume). Does it split down to Uk cars?
For the TT CB Volantes this source claims one per dealer: https://astonmartins.com/car/dbs-v12-volante-carbo...
So if you know the number of AM dealers in the UK, you know it (same for DBS TT CB Coupes).

I’ve read the article and I’m not sure re the CB numbers quoted. As you state, it was only one per dealer for a limited period launched with the UB model. Certainly not available in later 2012/12.
