Hello from a long time lurker who has been saving up the pennies (or Eurocents) whilst working abroad to enable me to buy my first Aston on my return - I know pics are obligatory so here they are.

I learned so much from this excellent forum to help me narrow down the buying criteria: ie

1- Stretch to a 4.7 if you can - its worth it

2- Manual is for me - "Clutch learn" ! No Thanks

3- Stick with the main dealers - Pre Sale- v good.Post sale- less so

4 -Buy the colour you want but dont completely forget about resale

5 -My dentist is'nt good enough to make a Sport pack viable ( Though I like the SP wheels - watch this space!)

Any guesses as what colour it actually is ??


Dave

Thanks all for the warm welcome!

I m in South Wales - the pics have The Mumbles Lighthouse in the background

I dont think bigger pictures will help on the colour front - it s actually Tempest Blue, but I agree that,at least to my eyes,
there is a definite Green hue to it. I thought it was different without drifting into "acquired taste" territory!!

Hope to be more of a contributer than a lurker now I m back in good old blighty!!
