Hi,

So an enquiry to the Aston Martin Heritage Trust has told me that there were the following AM6 Vantages cars built in Ceramic Blue

LHD - 31 Roadsters and 11 Coupes
RHD - 9 Roadsters and 4 Coupes

Of the RHD cars only 4 of each were sold in the UK, of which my Roadster is one.

Of the 40 Roadsters built 4 were 'pre production' cars and subsequently destroyed, so only 36 got delivered.

Would love to know who has the others and where they are.

Across other models and inc the numbers above only 95 cars have ever been delivered in Ceramic Blue globally.

Here's mine in Wales recently.

Similar but quite different, Elwood and Flugplatz are both similar but are non metallic block colours, Ceramic is a little lighter and with a medium metallic flake loaded in.

Indeed, after 5 silver cars on the trot and an aversion to black and white cars it was a waiting game for an interesting color, Elwood or Flugplatz were on the hit list along with Hyper Red and Podium Green but found my one, never knew the colour even existed.

My old M2 was a related colour in this family and it was metallic too.
It is such a happy colour. I think Jag did a similar one on the F Type too?

I've seen Aston Martin Ceramic Grey, which is a heavy metallic dark grey.
