It’s a bloke thing as I said I’m considering the exact same move. Didn’t see your new car in the dealer stock at Newcastle had it just come in

Thanks Ashley.
I hope to God that I love it. I can’t keep changing them like this, it’s ridiculous.
It’s an affliction chum, I’m exactly the same.

I need Aston Martin Rehab.

Come to think of it, I’m getting married next month. I guess that will be pretty much the same thing.

Congrats on the switch...you didn't consider a V12VS?
+1. I was thinking just the same. More agility with the same engine, same power or more... if you have the Performance Pack.

Don't give James ideas for his next car. wink

Do you remember my topic about loyal and passionate multiple buyers of Aston Martins?
It established that there are very many owners, who have had more than one car.
Loyal customers are of course, very good for Aston Martin.

Congratulations, and enjoy your new car James.

You are not alone in that special group, David.
Some multiple owners have really caught the 'passionate loyalty bug'.
Wonderful to own both historic and modern, but I would be on dodgy ground making that suggestion.

Have had my V12VS two months and it's a wonderful thing...by chance I had a blast in a McLaren 570 GT on Friday...all I can say is when the time to change comes ( so 2 yrs from now) I'd wager that a McLaren will be top of the list..assuming I can live without the V12 honey of course!

Enjoy your new toy James I went from a 9 to vantage and it feels so much nimbler, swapping my pipe and slippers for shell suit and trainers smile

Thanks Ashley.

First impression of the car is really positive. It looks and drives like new.

It is much nimbler than the Vanq. A completely different experience.
