No Blue
My car is definitely Morning Frost, it says so on the receipt. It was registered in April 06 and spent the first 8 months of its life on show in the reception area at Aston Martin's head office at Gaydon. I'm not sure if it was taken to any shows, but it was not used on the track and it had only 56 miles on the clock when I bought it.
Another identical car was built and used at Millbrook for customer demonstrations and training days. This came onto the market just before our car with a mileage of about 6000 miles.
A Morning Frost Vanquish was also built for Dr Ulrich Bez, Aston Martin's CEO. I'll try to attach a picture. This car was sold recently at quite premium over other used Vanquishes by Lancaster at Cambridge.
There really is no blue in this colour. The marketing guy who described the colour may have been looking at photographs where it often looks to have a blue shade in it, especially if there is blue lighting around. If anything the hue is more of a pink, but really it looks like a frosty white with pearly glint.
It's my understanding that a car built in the era of my car would have cost around £3000 more in this colour.
