Out with the old...........and in with a DBS

[V8 Animal]

Had to alter the garage first!!!!
Floor to ceiling shelves at the back of the garage is just too tight test fit whilst out on test drive 5mm clearence when door closed

Knocked a hole in each wall and slipped a L steel in 50mm x 50mm put a bearer on the back wall dropped a shelf on.
Split the shelves into 2 and bingo room for the car.
Also got rid of a fare bit of junk
DBS is a bit longer than the Vantage


Took my last photo this morning,

After the drive to the dealers roof off at +3c it was bracing but worth it i felt a bit down letting the car go

The car is not ready till next week so these are the piccies taken at the dealer.




Hopefully the weather holds for next weekend

1 Owner and only 6000 miles manual too

You felt down until you saw what you would be taking home! They are gorgeous cars.

Congrats. My 9 is nice but every time someone posts a pic of their new S the little green monster turns my stomach - yours is black too, nice

Nice looking S though.

Another name change required.
"V12 Animal" will it be?

Congrats Paul - fantastic cars and a part of me remains completely envious

Yes you can, it is easy in the config of your own profile (you can do it yourself, I did change mine from AWV8 too :-))

You won't be able to have a space in your name though! Hence why I had to change

Nice car though

Hi Paul,

Assuming you have suicide black interior you just need to get it chaved up now

I like the fact you've replaced you piano black trim with that leaf-effect trim Nick... tres moderne mon ami...
