Another Aussie with an Aston
Discussion
Hello from Brisbane, Australia!
Just picked up my first Aston Martin, a 2007 V8 Vantage in meteorite silver, with a sandstorm interior (I think that is what they called it). One owner with full AM service history. So far have changed the rear lights over to clears and lashed out on the AM car cover.
Just got the repair kit for the sat nav and am going to have a crack at that tonight!
Will upload a photo when I work out how!

Hey fellow Australians - I've also just picked up an Aston Martin. It's an 08 DB9 in Titanium Silver.
I've had it for a week now, fixed up a few small things, picked up the TPMS Defeat from the post office. I'll fix up the tyre pressure sensor at some point but this will get rid of the annoying light for now.

Looks like someone has been parking too close to the kerb....I've had it for a week now, fixed up a few small things, picked up the TPMS Defeat from the post office. I'll fix up the tyre pressure sensor at some point but this will get rid of the annoying light for now.
Hee hee, Yep. This was the photo I took of the car that I took when I first saw it. I had the dealer fix that up and paint the bottom up.
They did a good job actually. One of the wheels had some kerb rash on too - again got it fixed. I had a list of things they had to sort.
I sure love the colour.

Good analogy - they are indeed a thing of beauty.
I've always loved the marque and have lusted after them for years. I finally put enough pennies to get one. I specifically wanted a silver one - just seemed like the right colour. Titanium silver seems a little lighter in colour than other brands titanium colour which tend to be a little darker.
This forum has been a godsend as I've been able to understand a whole bunch of stuff about the car. Oh and of course astonbits is also fantastic.
I love the way these things drive. I just sold an 09 M3. Totally brutal monster and although this Aston has more power I think I prefer the way the Aston drives. PLUS even though the M3 was good looking, this DB9 is in a different league of beauty.
