V8V to DB9 - Clarity Required

[neveratt]

I’m taking the V8V to the dealer on Thursday for a new set of tyres. After an amazing and fun year with the Vantage I thought that maybe a DB9 might be an interesting option for the new year...so I’m hoping to have a test drive.

Having lurked on this forum for nearly a year I think I’m getting the hang of it but I do have some questions.

1) Will I be issued with a set of pipe and slippers before I drive the car or should I really take my own?
2) Do I need to start wearing cardigans and tank-tops? This one kind of worries me to be honest.
3) I shall be looking at used cars, should I be checking for incontinence staining or is this covered by some sort of DB9 warranty?

Thanks in advance. Neil

Valid points and an intelligent move upwards.

This particular change in car usually happens when one's testicles drop so congratulations on your new found deeper voice, gravitas and effortless class.

Use it to demonstrate that you are a gentlemen of heroic stature, a man of wit and discretion rather than a shell-suited, N-Dubz listening 'boi' with an inferioriority complex brought on by having a lack of cylinders. Or chlamydia.

All good questions, but a DB9 owner will have forgotten what the first 2 were by the time they have finished reading the last one.

Sorry to hear about your medical issue old chap. Have found it best to always have a lack of chlamydia. You can get a tablet to treat it these days.

That's the great thing about PH...there's always an expert on hand, someone who has been through it so you don't have to

Shouldn't you be parked in a McDonalds car park somewhere listening to your pimpin' bass ICE?

Unlike the SAGA crew the younger generation know how to use Google / Search engines for information!

McDonalds - reputedly the do fish and chips but no gravy!

I suppose they picked me out as a man of means, based on the fact I have a DB9 not one of those little chug-a-bug V8 things which are the automotive equivalent of a training bra...
