So, why do you obsess about those silver AMR alloys? And why the heck did you spend good money on getting those old V8 side skirts bolted on?

Photo evidence 1, 2 and 3 in my defence.

I have reached absolute peak Aston Martin and am not budging. Not a millimetre.

beautiful photos and car...

Lovely photos

I am genuinely curious - where do you mount the front numberplate on these?

That is indeed stunning and reminds me of the Phoenix yellow I had on an E46 M3.

One of my absolute favourite BMW designs (I don't think they did better after it) and it did look perfect in that colour.

Loads of car brands do similar from VW to Kia

There’s a bracket under the nose - I removed the large oversized standard fit plinth and fitted a much smaller mount that the plate’s attached to.
The photographer has photoshopped the plate off!

From a design perspective surely the plate should sit under the lip of the radiator opening not on it?

Cheers, Graham. Actually doesn’t ruin the lines with that shorter plate fitted

Hope you’re enjoying the car. I was lucky to see one put through its paces and some at a Castle Combe AMOC track day last month. Blindingly fast!

It looks like the perfect place for it is stuck on that black box about 6 inch down.
But I'm guessing that is some unnecessary electronic gubins that can't be covered over.

Pics for the shooting I lent my Vantage for are coming, stunning stuff.

Finally starting to get some sunshine to convince the naysayers that Merlot is not a shade of brown!

Haha. Nice. That colour is delicious. Is the interior colour savoury cheese? If so, a lovely pairing.

Some from Wednesday's AMOC Area 22 visit to the Badminton Estate. Glorious day!

Covered in dust and flies after a night at Shindig festival but lightning silver still full of life. I used to criticise "James Bond Resale Grey" or Silver Astons with black leather interior as unimaginative, now I have exactly that and love it :lol

PS the California Duster works wonder on a dusty car. If you don't have one, get one!

Pah! This is a dirty Vantage having completed nearly 7,000 miles and two months on our European trip.

Received the final edits from the studio shooting done in March. They are quite heavy, so will just post a grouped screenshot, but they are gorgeous, looks like an official reveal or something.
