Morning all,
I'd just thought I'd pop in say hello, I bought my first AM a couple of weeks ago and have fallen head over heels for it.
The car is a 2001 DB7 Vantage Volante in black with the Tremec six speed manual gearbox and lovely burbly Aston Martin sports exhaust system. Being a convertible means it isn't as rigid as the coupe and you can feel it wobble a bit over rough surfaces, but it is more than made up for the fact it just awesome in every department (I am completely biased of course), plus you can hear the engine and exhaust better with no roof...
The only downside is that I keep having to clean it as I spend all my free time driving it!

Congrats, I had a DB7 VV but with the Touchtronic, I wish I had bought a manual one as they seem to be wonderful to drive! I found the 'woble' no worse than any other roof chop job car, it's more of a point and squirt machine anyway, a GT muscle car! Enjoy it, though sounds like you are anyway.
Pics, what pics? I can't see any

I was just asking if the bumpers on the pics of the Aston were original or if they had been enhanced in some way, as I thought they looked great .......I don’t think that a moronic question to ask !!!talking of morons....."quiten" is spelt with an e after the i

Thank you for elucidating.
I myself was alluding to the absolutely phenomenal, humungus, eye-catching, mouth-watering, life-changing tits
It's only just dawned on me that we're talking about 'the twins'! No idea who they belong to, found them on the internet. They do look nice though, perfect for nuzzling.
As for the roof, I have to admit it isn't the tidiest when down, but it's behind me so I don't really notice. I don't like to use the tonneau cover either as the way it's designed means it scratches the paintwork.

Does look very nice, but I just don't like the way the roof sits when it's down on the DB7.
It was one of the reasons I sold mine for the DB9 Volante. However, I miss the boot space of the DB7 because the roof sits where I should be stashing stuff!If the roof had a darker lining it might have been more useable, the problem was that the light grey lining of mine used to get dirty if I didn't use the tonneau cover. It can be done without scratching the paint, I managed
They might be real... I was engaged to some like that once...

The grey lining is actually quite grubby in places on mine and I'm not too sure of the best way to clean it. Any advice would be more than welcome!
I suppose the other thing with the tonneau is that it is in the boot and you have to fit it, it's far easier just to drop the roof and be done with it!

Mine was like that when I got it.10% solution of Meguiars APC (or other general automotive cleaner)
Spray on leave to soak a bit
Whip off with microfibre cloth
Leave to dry
Spray with stain guard
After I did mine it just wipes off with a damp cloth now!
