[JiggyJaggy]

Hello all. I'm in Dubai for the Ab Dab GP and just went along to the Dubai Motorshow. Great day out for a tenner. Here are the pics from the Aston stand. Some stunning customised "Q" cars along with the Jay Leno C-100 mentioned in another thread.... Plus there were a few other stunning models there

























Rapide S with Q order quilted seats amongst other things





DB9 special Q order with Black Satin paint and Q badging amongst other things:

Meets new with a dash of old...

















And if there were ever two reasons to buy an Aston.... I'm still smiling!

Feel free to ask any questions. I met Kingsley who is the MD of Newport Pagnell. Lovely chap. Surprised there was no DBS there!!

[Jockman]

Question 1 - Are women allowed to drive cars in Dubai?
Question 2 - I thought they only made 2 of the C100s, and both are sold.
Question 3 - Lunchtime here - sausage roll or pastie?

They probably sold both of the car number 1's, and a couple of car number 2

So that's where it ended up, I spotted the Tango Orange one at the factory a couple of months ago

Q1. Is the first V12S really mauve, or is it the lighting?
Q2. Is mauve still a colour?

[George29]

I love the orange on the Vanquish. If it had silver details rather than black, and no carbon it would be perfect

The light green coloured DB9 is nice too.

The matte black one is absolutely hideous though

Funny how white paint even manages to make a DB6 look cheap too.

Is that Jockers ,with his back to us,not sure if he is on tippy toes.

[George29]

It could be him judging by the size of the heel on those shoes!

Verrrry interesting !
Does he only wear the stilletos when out with his pervy transvestite mate ?

I may be confused about this, but I thought the V12 Vantages were (Roadster are) all manual gearbox cars.

The first photograph is sans gearlever.

Please clarify.

Love the colour of that V12V - if it is a grey-white metallic colour then I saw it on a DBS a couple of months back and thought it looked stunning. Very "stealth" and suited the CF and I thought at the time that it would look great on a V12VS.

Anybody know the name of this colour?

I think it may be silver fox, the car I saw it on had dark alloys and it looked very special.
Silver fox was part of the colour range offered on the DBS Ultimate.
