Hi All
I've just bought a beautiful black N400 roadster

I've noticed its got the corroding wing mirror arms and bubbling around door handles

I emailed AM Bristol today and their reply was :

"If you would send me some images of the corrosion as well as the last 6 of the chassis number and mileage. This will allow me to submit a paint claim and hear what Aston would like to do."

I will keep you all posted

Matt

Congrats Matt. What year is the car? I'm also suffering the same. Gaydon must be inundated at the moment - I know of around 5-10 individuals with current claims.

Chris.

Have you just bought your car in the condition described, from a main AM dealer ?

I had the same problem. Bubbling mirror arms and around the door handle. I spoke with AM direct, and that have Kindly sorted everything for me. I have to say, an exceptional customer experience. Of course it should't have happened on the first place, but so many companies would have made it difficult. Not Aston - even Dr. Palmer helped. They have been fantastic, and so now they totally have my loyalty. My next car is an Aston.

It was a private sale.
