Been meaning to post here before now - my dream of owning an Aston Martin came true back in February when I bought my new to me DB9. It's a 2005 auto coupe in nero daytona and so far the reality is very much living up to the dream - I bloody love the thing and I'm still pinching myself!

Without knowing some of you guys contributed to the purchase with your knowledgable contributions on here so thanks for that.

Anyway, before anyone asks here's some pics - hope you like!

Lovely! I'm jealous! I've been looking too!

I've just started a thread about the red blob light on the dash and I see that yours has the same just above right of the green 'lights on' light.

I'm trying to find out what it means. Any idea? Thanks.

Thanks. When should it be on and when should it be off?

They always looks good in the darker colour - hope you get lots of enjoyment from it.

The red blob thing is the immobiliser/alarm light. It will come on when you first switch the ignition on and then when the system detects the "credit card alarm thing(!)" or when having it paired to your smart phone, it will go off.

I have mine paired to my phone which lately was loosing it or not registering it. Pain really as you then get a phone call from Eurotracker asking if the car is ok....they must have my number on speed-dial now.

Edited to add, should'nt it be red? It does look orange.

See reply to your original thread re the light - snap shots from the owners manual so hopefully what you need?
