Hi Everyone

After lurking here for a while to pick up some tips on what to look out for when buying an AM, your great advice evaporated from my brain the moment I laid my eyes on this:



My heart overruled my head and, mentally, I'd made the purchase before I'd even knocked on the previous owner's door. I couldn't be more pleased! rotate

Admittedly, I had the benefit of buying from a good mate who was very honest about the few and minor scratches/dings, previous problems and repairs etc. so I wasn't completely blinded by the desire to finally own an AM... (That's my story and I'm sticking to it.)

Anyway - Hi!, and thanks for the great community around here. Looking forward to joining in!

It certainly does. Nice to see bit of timber too.

What's that bronzy colour called - and can you get DB7s in it?

It's actually Tungsten Silver - the photo processing makes it look more "yellowy" than in really is..
