I highly recommend you contact Elliot Lewis (Elliot@classicadditions.co.uk) at Classic Additions Limited for your cover. I got a fantastic cover from them. Fits like a glove.

I believe you're in the US; I bought a cover for my 2015 Vantage from California Car Covers, https://www.calcarcover.com. Fits perfectly. It's the second I've bought from them, the first was for the Lotus I used to own and that cover also was perfect.

Been discussed a few times and a search should find the threads. I bought one from Classic Additions. They make the OEM cover. You can order from their website.

Is someone aware if the db9 and Vantage OEM indoor cover is the same size?

I know the print on the side says the Model.
The cover is elastic and I'm wondering if this is the only difference between them?

I'm talking about this style:

Mine is a 09 Vantage.

I found a db9 cover in black for sale local on FB for a few bucks.
I'm usually not the car cover fan but I love the style with the lines of these.

Since the db9 is longer by a few cm, it would fit easy over it but if the cover hangs, it wouldn't look sharp anymore.

You are correct.

Per google:
Vantage Dimensions: 173″ L x 73″ W x 49″ H
DB9 Dimensions: 186″ L x 74″ W x 50-51″ H

Do you have a cover like this?

I want to know if the cover is elastic and same size fits both?

'Rents got me the OEM one for Christmas. Ordered through astonmartinbits.com. Absolutely love it, very high quality on a level far beyond your average AutoZone car cover. Had no idea it was possible to be that excited over a car cover.

Apologies for the messy garage

I do not, but I was clarifying the size difference because I'd be surprised if it were elastic enough that a DB9 cover would not look loose on a Vantage. I'd honestly expect it to drape down at the rear a bit, since that's where most of the extra length comes from.

I have a Form-Fit from Griot's. Compared to OEM, it's more stretchy and lighter weight so it's very easy to put on and remove. It's got a soft inner liner and a red tab on the driver's side to make it easier to place when unfolding onto the car. The stretchy material makes it very easy to get the cover over the mirrors and the rear antenna (which I have). I'm very happy with it.

I ordered mine from Classic Additions. Apparently they make the OE covers. It is a perfect fit and you get to choose colors and piping etc.
