Lovely looking car, congrats.

I too prefer the origin nal side skirts to the ones that followed. This was one feature that was high on my must have list.

It is. I bought it in Paris after it came from Belgium where it was owned by one of Astons exec's. I'm guessing it wanted for nothing.
Be interesting to see what the permanent reg is.

What do you guys think of this one, a V12V not black, still dark-ish (what I like), the louvres still come out great in this color, its a pretty but high km car, still looks good though I think.

It has a brown leather interior, wich I first thought, nah... and it misses the lovely bucket seats, but I think its not bad, its even better then say another black-ish interior, it fits the car I think.

Lovely car and I would chose that interior over black any day.

Yes, really classy, the interior ties the whole spec together brilliantly.

Very tempting...
And so much better without a front plate

yes, those things can spoil a lot, on soms cars restricting even some cooling, or are not helping CW, so are bad for the environment, so we can do those away ;-)

I like that car as well, the color (outside) seems to be Meteorite Silver, did not thought it was something with the part silver in it.

came across this V12Vs for sale with a interior which made me think of my old Z3 M coupe interior :-)



the pictures are a bit to light/bright, so you can't see its full warmth/color, but you get the idea.

Thank you cool

GTRene said:
nice photos, rare in and outside and I see now the AMR writing, so also rare, cool.
Ta! Let's face it, it's a V12S with a Performance Pack by default and some different paint and stitching. In a way, like many Vantage specials over the years (N430, etc.). But it feels really special, which is the trick bounce

Mr.Tremlini said:
Your photos do it a lot more favours than the HWM shots! wink
In all fairness, it's a weird paint to capture. It changes so much in the various lights. It got caught out in a light shower today when I parked up along a drive I was doing, and with droplets on, it looked quite different again. It's not a trick paint, but Aston has a number of these paint jobs which really change according to conditions (there's a very dark blue one, and Volcano Red could look quite orange in sunlight). All fun!

Great car in and out! Love the color and the volcano red as well.
Can somebody tell me the name of the very dark blue mentioned?

Lovely photographs, to my eyes there is a purity to the design of the original car. I much prefer the tucked under sills to the flared out versions.
