DBS Options

[kryten22uk]

Been looking at used DBS's again, and from "comparing" cars on the AM pre-owned website, it would seem that these cars come fully loaded as standard with very little optional extras. Is this true, or are the descriptions not being filled out that good on the website? Any advice as to what options were popular, as otherwise I cant really see what the reason is for price fluctuation other than age and mileage.

modern Astons dont seem to have many options in general, certainly not compared to German cars, reknowned for 1" thick catalogues

other than lots of bespoke trim options, its usually just sat nav, phone, HIDs and such like

I always find it amusing reading some of the ads "high spec car" with a long list of errrr....standard features

[kryten22uk]

Not sure what a HID is, but the HardDrive SatNav is supposed to be standard on DBS is it not?

[bogie]

HIDs are xenon lights ...std...and yes hard drive satnav is standard

basically for your £60K extra you got all the DB9 options ...cant really think of any that are missing from a DBS that you would need

It basically comes fully loaded as standard, with things like nav and memory seats etc. The only options really are optional back seats, different wheels, and B&O sound.

B&O wasn't really an option. They had one stereo system and then after a few hundred cars started fitting B&O as it's replacement. DBS options are mainly cosmetic (wheels, trim etc).

Auto-dimming rear view mirror is an option (mirror plus homelink is another upgrade) as are rear seats (only after 08).

Take a look at the configurator.
