As I continue to indulge my passion for English sports cars I now have just four sleeps before the next arrival. I'm now on my fourth Aston but this is my first new one. I know it doesn't make financial sense to buy new but it is such a fantastic looking car I could not resist.

It's a Ceramic grey N430 with the lightweight seats, carbon bits and some other upgrades. Pictures to follow.

That's lovely - I do like the N430 wheels too, I believe they are the std fit no cost option on GT8 too, so that's got to be a good sign!

Is that AM Brentwood?

Lovely......

Ceramic is a great colour, especially when the sun bounces off it.

A great car Gary. Enjoy.

Adam - The wheels look similar to the 2009 era Sportpack.
Are they the same casting?

Ceramic is a fantastic colour, I had it on my SP10. It looks great in all lights but especially in bright sunshine as the sun shines of the little flecks in the paint...great choice. Car looks fantastic.

PS: Get rid of that front number plate plinth ASAP wink

Similar but I thought they were different, but couldn't say 100% for sure. The spokes look somewhat narrower at the point where they join the rim.

Have a look at the n430 configurator

Congratulations. My now departed V12V was Ceramic Grey and it is a stunning colour, especially in the sun.

Congratulations - looks like Aston Grange at Brentwood so I assume you are local. Mine came from there too, I will look out for you.

Just noticed the front of the side bolster on the lightweight seats - that's a bit unusual isn't it?

Also is the instrument panel and indeed the whole of the Upper IP in Alcantara? Is that standard on N430 too?

Alcantara on the binicle is standard on the N430. Not sure about the seat thing
