Looks nice, but value after a re colour? DB9

[3200gt]

After selling my DB9 about this time last year I am am thinking about getting back into another. I had always thought they would look nice in white but are few and far between.
So, given that its had a re colour (it says on their website but omits in PH clasifieds) what do you think is the correct price on this? My thoughts are around the £36-37k tops.
It has been given a full service about 1500 miles/12 months ago which included a full set of coil packs.
So from a time point of view is due another service. Mileage is higher than many others at less money. Has 6 months non AM warrenty rather than a full 12 months.

That's up there with some of the worst DB9s I've seen. Vile spec, would look at home on a league 1 footballer's drive.

George... get off the fence and say what you mean I actually thought it looked ok in white... better than the silver wrap one on the other thread

For sale in Essex - that is all!

Piece of crap.......what the hell are you thinking ........it's awfull.........and it's so expensive.......you can have my 55plate 29k mint 9 for less than that.....in fact you can't , because for considering buying that white thing I won't sell you mine

[michael gould]

Gorgeous George ......Jockman is right .....your starting to sound like me or......I'm starting to start to sound like you !!

[ShortTimers]

I do enjoy it when the rants start.... i've not laughed this much for ages!!!

[LordBretSinclair]

It's worrying isn't it Michael? I keep agreeing with Georgeous too and here I am doing it again

That 9 is horrid.

Has no-one realised that it appears to only be a wrap that's on it and not a fresh paint job.....??

Yep spotted that on the dealer web site....

I think I would take it to these guys and get it changed again.

I think your reactions are a bit extreme and a little baffling. IMO the car doesn't look bad at all. Indeed I find the white it is striking and unusual - this coming from someone who normally doesn't like white cars.

I think if you put these wheels on, it would look better:

My god those wheels are even worse than those revolting black ones. There must be an easier way to let people know you're a complete tosser than driving round in that.

George H said Aaaww not black
ShortTimers said Aaaww not silver
michael gould said Aaaww not silver
x7lda said its a wrap (it isn't)

There's already 3 silver ones in my village, we're not all wanna be JB's.
My question was about value not wether YOU liked the colour. Colour is a personal choice.




Having said that, Michael if you want to send me the details of yours (and it comes with a bond girl) PM me.

[3200gt]

And yes, the wheels would be a step too far.

There is......... Getting an S59 marker against you for one...

Can't wait to get my charcoal wheels back on...... They look fab

As usual, anything posted in the Aston forum goes straight down the pan. It's suppossed to be a forum where we all help each othet out, I'm sure many of you have requested the DB9 Docs from me for example. Did I go off track and ignore your request? (This is the bit where your supposed to be )
If you've not got anything constructive to say about the value then please don't bother.

[Rex Racer]

I'm not a fan of white generally, but the car certainly isn't horrible as others have expressed. IMO an Aston does not need to only be black, silver, or green.

I agree with your sentiments that it is slightly overpriced considering its age and mileage.

Your original figure is correct, though if they were to throw in the required service, perhaps a full year waranty too....mmm

Shame on all the off-topic brigade too
