Out of interest, was the Virage => DBS wipers an easy job? Do you mind me asking how much the job was? I am desperate to get rid of my DB9 wipers for the Virage/late DBS wipers.

Approx £400 can't help more than that as i have left the clear lights on the Vantage so it was a straight swap roughly smile

New-fangled rules and regulations then - it was all different when I was a lad.
My member ID is 141, which gives you an idea of how long ago I set my PH name ! smile

Beautiful.

Question: EXACTLY how long is the DBS? I'm struggling with the V12V vs DBS debate due to garage length. Would be good to know the length not quoted from the data sheet smile

Thanks.

Seriously? You'd rather someone went out, looked at their car and estimated rather than taking the official and EXACTLY correct measurements?

Takes all sorts I suppose confused

Your DBS looks stunning. Congratulations on your purchase, and enjoy your new car.

You refer to re-arranging your garage, for the extra length of the DBS.
Should I be anxious at all, about the available width?

When I see interior photographs of a DBS, I feel privileged in the baby model, that the interior looks identical.

Isn't that likely to get a bit damp and smelly if you park a wet car in there?

If the garage is too short for a DBS,just sell your house and buy one with a big enough garage .im afraid 'my garage is too small' just won't cut it.
