I've been reading this forum for a little while so was about time I introduce myself and my V8 Vantage.

I have owned the car for 4 years, a 2007 model year car in Tungsten with the 4.3 engine having now covered just 14,000km.
Fitted 200 cell cats in the summer and still don't know if the stereo is any good!

It's not my everyday car and has been used purely for the odd trip away, weekend drive and nipping out for the morning breakfast....the long way round!

Aston Martins are quite rare in Munich and are hardly seen here.

If anyone is planning a European trip (track day or tour) let me know and I'll try to meet up.
The mountain roads south of Munich offer a great drive.

Anyway in good tradition some photos of the car.

Mansfield.

Cheers for the welcome guys.

Should be heading your way Mr Tremlini the beginning of June with around 15 other petrol heads on a weekends tour, so hopefully meet up then if not before.

I've recently done some visual changes to the car and will post up some related topics soon.

Servus and welcome. A lovely ride ride you have, well done.
I am from around Munich too, though living in Switzerland for several years now.

We should definitely plan a Alpen-Meetup soon.....

Welcome to the forum Mansfield, lovely looking car. What are the recent alterations you have made?

Do you fancy joining Mr Tremlini for a little visit to the UK at the beginning of July to join in at the Burghley House gathering on July 3rd?


I am sure the currently 400 plus other Aston Martin owners would make you very welcome.
