Well after a lot of question asking and driving up and down the country searching for the right car, I now own a 2015 V8 Vantage Roadster!! Thanks to those on here that answered some of my questions. The car has been taken straight to Paintshield so I've got to wait until Saturday to finally bring it home. Here's hoping for decent weather this weekend, can't wait

Congratulations.
I temporarily deviated from Aston to and went into M6 Gran Coupe, but have today just purchased a 2013 Rapide S (2 kids).
Enjoy.

We took the train to Peterborough and collected the car from Paintshield on Saturday. It started raining just as we pulled the car out of Paintshield's workshop. However, it soon passed so we were able to have the roof down for a bit. It had less than 6k miles on it when we collected it, but its now in the 6 thousands after putting 376 miles on the clock over the weekend smile

I love those alloys. I had them on my old black Vantage.

Congrats!

Beautiful.......got to love cream truffle interior.

A small tip from a fellow cream truffle owner...........get onto Amazon and buy a bulk box of extra sensitive baby wipes. I've used them since day one to wipe down the leather and it still looks mint. It gets dye from jeans off no problem.

Anyway, enjoy it thumbup

I use Dr leather Dye block, I find it much better than the G-techniq leather guard.

Thanks for the tips. I originally skimmed by this one on the net. I originally went to view another that was the usual black on black. The condition of that one was a bit of a let down but this one really stood out and the interior looked so much better in the flesh.
