needs new knobs....

Lovely colour combo, I love iron ore - probably because the press pics were always that colour combo in 2005 and I'd sit there drooling!

As Tony says, get some nicer knobs for the controls, adds to the quality feel.

Standard exhaust? Have you pulled Fuse 22? You'll need to if you've come from a TVR!

What new "knobs" / buttons are we talking about here??. I have 2006 version but have seen nicer ali type buttons in newer models which have an upgraded look / feel (although still nicked from the Ford/JLR parts bin as a Jag XK has same window and electric seat buttons....how and where do you source them??

Still waiting on mine.

Love the interior. Nice to see one with a wood fascia instead of piano black too

[verminator]

I would be very interested to know how a DB9 compares to the Sag. I would have thought the Sag would leave it for dead in the performance stakes. What made you change? Just being nosey, hope you dont mind.
