Autocar did an article back in (I think) November detailing what to look out for on the DB9 and V8 Vantage, and what servicing costs. They quoted an indy in Derby which didnt seem too bad (for an Aston).

It would be worth getting a copy of that article.

If you want a copy, I can send you an electronic copy via email.

For servicing, give Rich at Derby Motor Services as call. Highly recommended, top guy, fantastic service at a very reasonable price. I can send you his telephone number if necessary. Also visit his website at www.derbymotorservices.com.

4 year service isnt a big one - certainly not £3.5k someones winding someone up

Insurance - get a classic banger - insure it with Hagerty insurance at Silverstone and both cars together (my classic is an SL320 Merc) is £600 limited to 5000 miles

I intend using DMS for my October 4 year / 40k service and expect to pay less than £3500
