I'm looking for an Aston Martin umbrella to go into the boot of my DB9.

Has anyone got one for sale?

Thanks.

Got a new one from AMBits recently for cheap and had it gold plated for my build. Try then first before fleabay.

Try your dealer first. Often a brand spanking dealer part is the same price, especially if you're prepared to negotiate.
Aston bits aren't cheap. I've got my grille fitted by Aston cheaper than they were supply only. And £135 isn't cheap for a glass sport switch.....
The website isn't an e-commerce site, you need to add 20% VAT to all those prices and the condition of some parts can be dubious.

Don't get it fitted at the dealers though. A mate had many £,000s of work done to his Vanquish at Works Service. He also remembered that he'd lost his umbrella. So he asked that they put a new one in the existing straps under the boot lid. They charged him for the umbrella (fair enough) but also 15 mins of labour to "fit" it.
They did knock it off the bill when he complained though.

I have this mental image of someone placing the umbrella inside, then stepping back to assess their placement - going back to adjust.. and repeating for 15 minutes laugh
