It has arrived, my Cobalt Blue V12 Vantage Roadster!
That is, it has arrived at Kroymans, the local Aston Marton dealer.

May I present to you, the most beautiful Aston Martin ever (sorry guys, but it is), Agent #002:




Mine is #002 of 101 V12 Vantage Roadsters, which indeed is shown on the sill plaque:



The interior:





Here it is, parked next to my Fire Red V12 Vantage coupe:



I can't wait to take it home. Still some paperwork to do, and of course, cleaning, polishing, new car service checks, etc... But I hope to be able to drive it home next week.

It's a great looking thing, but not the most beautiful ever!
I assume yours is the most beautiful ? :-)

When do you take delivery? Bet you can't wait. Hope the weather and roads are ok for you over there so you can take it for a good drive when you do get it smile
I hope to take delivery on Tuesday next week.

Are you keeping the Coupe too??
Yes, I am keeping the V12 Vantage coupe.
I traded in my V8 Vantage S Roadster.

Just had my first 100kms in Agent #002 !!

Okay, I already had my suspicions...
... but I can now confirm that the V12 Vantage Roadster really *is* the ultimate Aston Martin :-)

What a car ... the looks, the noise, the acceleration, the noise, the handling... and did I mention THE V12 NOISE?
... and all that in an open car ... just perfect.

I really like what they did to the suspension. Not as stiff as the V12V coupe, slightly more comfortable.

So what is "GOSSET" the box that is adding weight the "WELKOM" stand?

Beer, Fags Chocolates or some other luxury item? Free Gift perhaps?
Yes, it's champagne.
By now, my dealer knows I am not really fond of flowers :-)
