If the FB picture I saw is what I think it is then it is someone with a very good knowledge of upgrading/updating Aston systems.

For all the criticism of the old Aston infotainment systems it is somewhat ironic that my AMR car has Apple CarPlay on it in the second generation cars don’t confused

It is indeed on its way.
The gents over at Aston Installations seem to be keeping busy.

Look forward to it with interest. Waze in screen would be great.

That's an understatement... I call James almost every day, and if I don't hear Len in the background I ask what's amiss. Those guys are non-stop slaving to make Aston owners happy.

This is great news... loving my new DB11 V12, the addition of CarPlay will be the icing on the cake!
any idea on cost of upgrade. Mercedes NTG5.1 head units only required a simple OBD2 device for about £30... but the DB11 uses NTG 5 with custom graphics and I dont want to risk flashing the software with an OBD and stacking the system!

OBD programming won't make it operate unfortunately. Our kit works really well, but I can't advertise.... £1395

All the best,

James
