DB9 Owners

[David Ramsbotham]

Wanting to reach out to DB9 owners but doesn’t seem to be a Facebook page for them.

Any suggestion appreciated.

TIA.

There is a db9 owners group on fb.

Not many members, applied to join twice and got no response think it’s US based. Messaged admin and nothing!

Start one yourself and identify it as DB9 UK Owners Group, its so easy.

I have a 2014 DB9 Gen4. I also got no joy with the FB DB9 group.
Perhaps if you post on this forum why you want to 'reach out', e.g. social meetings, technical help, moral support, a few of us may respond. I am in Gloucestershire, so not too far from you.

Sadly the rules of this site won’t allow me to say why I want contact!!!!!!!

Didn't know there were any rules. Plenty of posters asking for tech help and discussing meeting up at an event etc.

It is also possible to search the PistonHeads member directory for DB9 owners. Click on your name at top right and follow the links under 'Member stuff', then select make of car and model (beware the DB9 is sometimes listed as DB 9 or DB-9 etc)

I’m trying to get one!

Seeing Gloucestershire and wanting to contact other DB9 owners, made me think of the Aston Martin Owners Club. The Gloucestershire Area is very active. Some of their social meetings are at a pub/restaurant near Birdlip. You might even meet an AML employee.

Thanks for the thought, I am in fact an AML retiree!

Yes, you mentioned that in one of your recent posts. I did not know before.
Good to have members here with Company insight.

Since becoming an owner, I have tried to take an interest in the history of AML. Please point out my mistakes, if you spot me rambling about something which you know to be incorrect. Were you perhaps at Gaydon when production first began?

[David Ramsbotham]

My team and I prepared the document that Ulrich and I took to the States to seek Ford Corporate management’s approval to the Gaydon factory and the VH platform programs.

I have just set up a private db9 uk and europe group on fb to see what happens.

As its only me, probably nothing lol.

That’s great, hope I can join!

Haven’t been able to find it on Facebook, is it ready to take joiners yet?
