Quick question please. Can anyone confirm which country this V12V is from as the plate style and number/letter combo is unfamiliar to me?

Armen/Shmee, thanks for clearing that up. It was my only "?" in my country column of my register!

Plus, I currently have 3 Monaco reg plated V12V's, 2 black and one grey so maybe this is the grey one before it received its actual Monaco plates, who knows??

Armen - what car do you currently own? Could you be my V12V spotter in France?? I have 19 unique French V12V's from reg plates but no vins.

I dont think it is Hammerhead but it could be Tungsten or Meteorite (what's the difference between these two colours)?? Did Meteorite supersede Tungsten?

No it didnt supersede it, I believe both are still available today.

Tungsten is quite a bit paler than Meteorite - this car is definately not Tungsten, but it might be Meteorite (same as my car). The only other option I would put forward is Quantum Silver which is very very similar to Metorite. Quantum is slightly more brown and Meteroite more grey but both are a very similar shade to the car in your pic.

For what its worth I personally think the pic is most likely Quantum Silver

Lots of opinions, so here's mine... I'm pretty sure it's not Quantum, which is a bit darker than Meteorite (as well as more brown). I also think it's a little too light to be Meteorite. My thought would be Hammerhead, with Meteorite as a possibility. Of course, it could be a non-Aston color, too.

It's not a Giulia, but its successor the 2000 Berlina. wink

I agree, not Quantum for the same reasons stated. I have one and it does not look like that.
