I saw a V8V recently and it had a full Kestrel leather interior with silver stitching. Initial reaction was. OMFG how awful, then after trawling the net and seeing so many Obsidian Black "safe chice" interiors, it really struck me just how special and bespoke the Kestrel looks and feels.

So what are opinions like on this: Yes or No ?

Awful.

Black is safe because it looks awsome, it is difficult to beat.

Obviously massively against the grain, but I love it.

Its one of my favourite interior colours. Its not as "bright" in real life and has much more of Gentleman's club chair look/feel to it...

Buy it if you love it, but buy it cheap because that is how you will be selling it!

I saw a green DB9 with that interior once. I had to conclude that the owner was colour-blind.

Aston Racing Green with the Kestrel interior = cloud9

But then I hate 'Coal Mine Black' or 'Pipe n Slippers Beige' interiors biggrin

VW used to do a paint option called Harlequin, with different panels of the car painted different colours. Looked like you'd been down the scrapyard after a serious accident. Still better than the Kestrel interior on an Aston though.

Kestrel interior wouldn't look out of place on this.
