So after years of lurking on the site I am joining the owners club. I'm counting down the days till I pick up my purchase next week.
Originally I was looking at 4.7, but have opted for a 4.3 due to various reasons. I'd imagine that there are a fair few on here who have followed this route?
I've bought from McGurks and I cannot speak highly enough of John, his team and of course, Watson the loyal meeter and greeter. Cannot wait to get out and about in it 👍

maybe someday

Congrats on the purchase. I started with a 4.3 in mind and ended with a 4.7 10 years ago, either way you've got a lovely car!

I started the other way round and was thinking 4.7 then I saw this 4.3 and loved it. It’ll be in the drive for a while then to a 4.7 and work my way up the range, or at least that’s my thoughts for now :-)

Nice looking car - welcome to the (I assume) Onyx Black owner's club, where you'll find that on Astons black isn't so much a colour as a job description

Lovely car.

I hope it lives up to expectations!

I’m about 11months behind you according to the spreadsheet in my own transition from Lurker to Owner.

Can’t come soon enough!

Thanks, it’s Nero Daytona colour wise and no doubt will look great when I manage to keep it clean :-)

Nero Daytona - a "Q", non-standard, Ferrari colour, eh? A bit different.

I believe so, good to be a little different :-)
