A lot of people worry about the reliability and drivability of Aston Martins, especially those coming from Porsche.

I'm happy to say that my car just hit 30,000 miles yesterday on my way back from Captree. So far the car is in excellent shape, all issues are minor inconveniences and easily mended. Running with new O2 sensors have finally relieved my constant worry for the emissions warning.

According to AM:LI, mine is the 2nd highest mileage car in the area that gets serviced by them. Drive your cars guys.

Nice! I assume you're in Europe? I'm really surprised when I'm on British used car sites how much more people on the other side of the pond drive their Aston Martins.

These cars really get better as you drive them more. It runs much better from back in December when I got it.

My vantage has 30,067 miles (30,000 saturday) and happy to report that the only problems I have are the O2 sensors.

Coming up on 24k miles on my 06'!

I noticed a lot of you with high miles have replaced the 02 sensors...is this something that comes with miles?

Thanks

I'm impressed my 07 Vantage had nothing but problems and I dumped it with only 8,000 miles on it. Between trips back and forth to the dealer it became another job. Aston Martin kissed my *** on the factory tour but when the problems started, forget about it! I'm happy for you.

I'm buying O2 sensors for the second time. I don't know if it's my driving style.
