New member - lots of pictures!!
Discussion
Hello everyone,
I thought it was about time I said hello! I bought my first Aston about 8 weeks ago and wanted to wait for some nice pics to be taken so here they are
sorry there is so many but I had a lot taken and it was difficult trying to whittle them down.
Its a 2010 V8 Vantage with flappy paddles and to say I am please is an understatemen , especially now after I have made a few tweeks.
The only thing I didnt realise was that the H&R suspension springs were designed specifically for the standard suspension shocks rather than the Bilstein ones that come with the sports pack - hence why the car is so low. I will be putting this back to standard shortly as they have spoilt the ride.
Thanks to Mat at http://mdbimages.co.uk fo taking the photos and Ed Smith for detailing the car - https://www.facebook.com/pages/Ed-Smith-Car-Valeti...
I hope you like...

Beautiful - and the paintwork looks like a mirror too!
I hope you don't mind a tip: I had the same scuff on the seat as you and this stuff hid it invisibly (just took 30 seconds)

Also if you are thinking of changing the dampers, you might consider switchable suspension - I invested and have become a disciple:

Happy new car

Hi Speculatore, I am sure he won't mind doing the photos for Snetterton. I have put my name down to go so would be easy for him to get there! I'll ask the question...
Just received an email from the chap who did Rockingham for us and confirmed his availability if we want him. No harm having 2 guys doing it, after all there is 3 miles of track to cover.....I will ask the question on the relevant thread. In the mean time can you see if he is available and what the fee would be?
Thanks
