It’s been a long time coming, but I have finally bought an Aston Martin.

I do post a few weeks ago regarding a white Vanquish for sale at Redline. The garage didn’t return my calls, didn’t reply to a list of questions I had, so I decided to look elsewhere.

Took a long drive to Aston Martin Reading yesterday, (who do reply to emails and phone calls).
I was taken out in the car for a test drive. My god is it quick. It’s an amazing car I loved it,so I signed on the dotted line. It’s being delivered to my house in 10 days, it will then be adapted and fitted with a left foot accelerator, and then I will be able to drive it.

I can’t wait..

I was very close to buying this a few months ago - he recommended I go see a DB9 closer to me to check on the rear space as wanted to fit the kids in (on occasion if needed).

I went and saw a DBS at Aston Martin Hatfield - and bought that instead!

Morning Biggaj. I couldn't fault them. Its my first experience of a Prestige garage and they had some amazing cars in stock. I was supplied with lots of coffee and biscuits. Emma, the sales lady, was incredible knowledgeable about the brand and cars, we must of spent the best part of two hours talking cars, she answered all of my question and there was now hard sell. I would happily recommend them.
