Hello Gents and Ladies,
After a couple of years of trawling the net, I have finally bought a bit on the side for myself!
2008 DB9 Volante - Sandstorm Hide - Midnight Blue - 17,000 miles.
To say I am excited is an understatement and at the same time feel slightly nervous that I've just parted with a large chunk of my children's inheritance!
Anyway, just thought I'd introduce myself and look forward to the advice, banter and general Bol~@ks that we all talk so well!
Here are the pics of my new Beauty -

Very nice,congrats.
Backdrop suggest that you bought the car from Derek Mowatt.
What was he like to deal with,he always has some nice motors.
Derek is a very nice chap. Has some beautiful cars, all really good examples. Gave me the details of the two previous owners and what their businesses are! The first owner supplies leather to Aston Martin and Bentley aparently! Second chap owns an Oil company! Bloody hell!Backdrop suggest that you bought the car from Derek Mowatt.

Anyway, lets see how I get on! Gulp!

I'd wager a DB9V with that kind if mileage will be worth more to your kids in 20+ years time than sticking it in an ISA To say I am excited is an understatement and at the same time feel slightly nervous that I've just parted with a large chunk of my children's inheritance!
Cheers everyone!
Just pulled over at Birch services to see all your replies. What a great place Pistonheads is!
If my new car does appreciate over the years, that is a bonus. It's not the reason I bought it, but I did tell my wife that it will be a collectors item one day and therefore the proceeds will pay for both daughter's weddings!! Ahem!! Seemed to get her approval all of a sudden! I have promised new carpets and curtains in several rooms too!
Have a great summer all and I look forward to waving/thumbs up/flashing at you when out and about!!
My dream has finally become reality! Cheers!
