Hi to everybody!

sorry for my not perfect english smile

I wanted to say hello to everybody, I just purchase my first Aston Martin Vantage Roadster (03/2008 production, 4.3 liter engine, sportshift gearbox) and I will have some question to ask you in the future laugh

the first question is about the Start button, It has to be always lighted red during driving the car or It is normal that It become red when I start the car and after few seconds It switch off? idea

the second question is where I can buy a new set of Vantage S wheels 19" with a good price over the internet? biggrin

thanks for your help...soon pictures from Italy Como's Lake with the Aston beer

Welcome
Great car for some great roads/scenery
I didn't think the 4.3 had a sport button?

You have a fantastic playground at your doorstep and the right car to enjoy it. I hope we'll meet you there one day. Look forward to the pictures.

PS nice to encounter an Italian who can see past Ferrari!

Hi Adam, it was great to meet you and your now lovely wife on your wedding day
at Chateau D'Etoges. As you know we drove down to Lake Como the following day,
"it was stunning," before driving down to our place in Tuscany. Hope you are both
having a great "honeymoon" and you have had some great jaunts. By the way, nearly
all of my Italian friends much prefer Aston Martin over Ferrari. smile
