Have bought a few cars from Dovehouse in Northants. They don't have a huge stock of Aston's but can thoroughly recommend them.

Don't rule out franchised dealers , without giving them a chance , you may be surprised.

I've had good dealings with both Top555 in Rutland and Westover in Dorset too, they have the occasional Aston in stock.

Agree based on very good dealings with Dick Lovett Bristol (it wasn't them hardballing in that thread about the 'no fix' for bubbling on a 'Timeless' Vantage door handle on an agreed sale was it - unsure)?

Always heard good things about McGurk over the years too.

Would second guys at McGurk who gave a “straight to the point” opinion when I was searching for my manual 2009 DBS. I ordered my CTEK charger from them & they couldnt be easier to deal with. Equally, James E from HWM stood out as approachable, technical, and impartial with his opinions. Will be servicing the DBS with HWM simply because they are the closest franchise AM dealer & there is now a level of trust. I would also say Paul from AM Sevenoaks is a source of unbiased knowledge especially comparing the first and second century cars.
As long as the dealer is trustworthy & passionate about Astons, I dont mind whether they are indie or franchise.

I can also say Craig from AM Edinburgh was great to deal with & a total car nut (Aston Mclaren Lotus). The conversations tend to be more about about the dynamics, handling and condition of the car rather than a hard sell about “car financing” which has unfortunately dominated the industry.

Another mention for Aston Martin Bristol for service.


Purchased my V8Vantage from Sytner Select Leicester ( M1), very happy with the car, nothing was too much trouble when enquiring and viewing the car. Thoroughly recommend - talk to Lee.

Cheers, David
