Congrats! I have had my rockers and front sprayed twice already from road rash. The aston paint is soft but easy to match. You are in store for some memorable drives!

 

Congratulations, that is a beautiful car! Good luck getting any sleep between now and the time it arrives at your home...

 

Zvez,

Good one!
Go over the car with a magnifying glass, a year is over before you know it.
I only opted for 6 months. I've been back at the shop 2 times for minor repairs.
(minor means less then €2000.)
Now i just found out my license plate lighting came loose in the bumper...


Regards. Ben

 

Welcome to grin on your face - all the time.

 

HI guys,
Thanks very much for the warm greetings. Talked with Brian today at the dealership, fingers crossed it'll be delivered first week in May sometime!

Had an added bonus, in addition to the thorough check they have to do to certify pre-owned. He sent me a copy of the last service done Dec 2013, annual service, new tires, all fluids changed, a couple small parts damaged replaced so really good to hear.
Can't wait.

My thought is with the factory warranty I can pile a lot of miles on it and any issues will hopefully arise then, aside from standard non-covered wear items.

 

So..... talked to Plycar today. Car should be here Sunday and weather is forecast to be magnificent, should I take it out for a nice drive or spend the day detailing it???
Chris

 

It won't need any detailing, it's mint!

 

have you got it yet???

its May now in Cape town so best you get it in your drive and post pics!!!!

 

Just talked to the truck driver 1-3pm tomorrow! I'll take pics (I don't take good pics, but I'll take pics).

Capetown, many fond memories of several trips there in the past! Prettiest city I've ever been to.

 

Good point!!

 

It's here, so officially an aston owner now! Truck brought it in, and as Ellipsis mentioned this car is incredibly good condition. I could only find one or two minor paint chips. Right front wheel was low on air pressure, may have been a loose valve stem core so will check that tomorrow.
A bonus, the car came with AM cover, AM battery conditioner, the AM umbrella, couldn't find the pen, where would that be?

A few pics of incredibly bad quality.

very nice well I suppose you are an Aston owner now? no going back

Enjoy it, let us know if it breaks knicker elastic in your town? Mine used to break panty elastic at fifty yards but those days are over, I suppose co's i only drive the same roads

 

Chris, how come you're taking/posting pictures and not driving right now?

 

Ha, you're right Karl! I should be out driving, I wanted to check over a few things in the owners manual probably go out for a spin this evening.

 

Chris, let me know if you want to go for a cruise or meet up for lunch. I can't wait to check it out.
