New Vantage Owner, Plus Car Secrets
Discussion
Hi all,
I thought I'd come and say hi to everyone as yesterday I collected my first Aston Martin and couldn't be more pleased!
Spec below:
2010
4.7 V8
20k miles
Hammerhead Silver
Sports Pack
Carbon Sports Seats
Premium Stereo
1 Owner
I also wanted to pick peoples brain about the secret tricks this car can do, ie. I discovered yesterday if you how both the L and R wing mirror buttons together, they fold in and out. Anything else I should know?
Thanks,
Rob

Hi all, thanks for the warm welcome!
Is there an iphone app I can use to access this forum going forward?
Interior pics will be up soon once I get home before it's dark!
Any tips on polishing these cars or a recommended detailer in the SW London area? The dealer said they would do a deep polish and add a protective coating, but all I can see is swirls in the paint.... FYI I am extremely anal about these things, I used to spend circa 6 hours a week cleaning and polishing my Cayman S.

Whoever spec'd this car up, knew what he was doing! Lightweight seats without the horrible writing on the headrests, a dash that looks awesome and doesn't blind you when the sun is out, all the N420 goodies but in a nice colour.
Loving this car more each day and looking forward to doing some longer drives in it!
The clutch though has got to be the worst I've come across. I'm sure it's good quality etc, but it doesn't match the power output of the car and you can tell it struggles. I will start a savings fund for the BR Twin Clutch replacement, for early next year, when the winter is out the way.
