Can't wait till mid March!!

[GilesS3]

I am not a prolific poster, but thought I would share my excitement - have had a DB9 for three years in Vertigo blue which I loved. It was sold on sale or return very quickly by my local dealer, and I ordered a new DB9. Great fun speccing it, some sleepless nights over wheel choice etc, but finally got there. Couldnt find a colour that I liked more, so have gone with Vertigo Blue again. Went to the factory earlier this week to see her in build, fantastic experience. Now cannot wait till mid March when she will be ready!!
Old car

New car in build at factory!

Have gone for Winter Wheat interior, this is a new colour for this year, with the upper enviroment in Dark Blue and dark blue carpets. Gone for the leather headlining as well - hopefully will look good!!

You've guessed it, diamond polished graphite wheels - had some sleepless nights over the wheel choice, much to my other halfs amusement! Will probably be nearer the middle of march, as having the full ventureshield kit fitted, will post some pictures once I lay my hands on it!!

Thank you for all your messages, must admit, getting very excited now!!
The ventureshield is being organised by the dealer before delivery - presumably they will ensure perfectly clean before it is fitted??? You've got me worried now Paddy, think I need to have a quick word with them!!!

She is really starting to take shape now, a couple more pictures to show progress!!!!

And the interior

It is, almost certainly a once in a lifetime experience for me, cant wait to see the finished car!! Got the space in the garage all ready!!

I have a good relationship with the dealer organising delivery, and I have raised the concers mentioned in this thread. They assure me that he guy doing the venturesgield (a local guy in Kent) also does detailing, and will clean the car properly before applying it. I will inspect thoroughly on delivery and reject if necessary!!
Be interesting to see if they are right!!!

[GilesS3]

As promised, some pictures of the finished car, now that I have finally got my hands on it!! All I need now is some decent weather!!

Thanks for all your comments. I think I will turn down your generous offer for your wheel swap Tarks 68!
The arm rest comes as standard now. No, I'm not using the tracker fobs, they were there from when I collected the car. Tracker now paired to my phone, which I find works much better. Did the same on my last one and it works really well!

Not as "mid Kent" as you Pete, am in Sole Street, near Meopham. Usually found hanging around Rochester somewhere!!
