Sadly, it's hail & farewell ............

[HBradley]

....... to my beloved Cobalt Blue V8 Vantage S



HOWEVER, my brand loyalty endures, so it's hello to the next step up, Tunsten Silver DB9 which will be collected from AM Reading at the end of the month.





The reasons for the change are varied; GT comfort, the desire for a NA V12 to name but a couple.

Very happy obviously & a big shout out to John Geddes who has done a great job putting the deal together, excellent service. More picces when it arrives.

Wow that looks lovely, Congratulations HBradley..

[ilikeAstons]

Extremely lovely - I have a tungsten one too, and it's a cracking colour.

[divetheworld]

Very, very nice. Beautiful car and colour.
And we all get to that 'certain age' sometime...

[ace of the base]

Nice DB9 but I just love Cobalt blue.

Not ready for pipe & slippers just yet, but years of jumping out of planes & carrying heavy weights, have taken their toll!

Drugs mule? I thought it was just a reference to Ryanair?

[hashluck]

Well done, I changed from V8S to Vanquish for similar reasons. Like that DB9 interior

[jonby]

from one timeless classic to another - many congrats

[V8V Pete]

Congratulations! Remember - no dark blue jeans in that interior

[james-witton]

Brilliant choice fella.
You'll love the V12 smooth delivery of power.
Congratulations

Very fine choice sir

Can't beat a NA V12 :-)

DB9 is still and will always be a beatiful car and surprisingly sporty to boot

I will of course

That's 9 looks fantastic. As much as I love the Vantage, that was a sensible move.

Good luck with it.
