After a long wait, it was finally time to take the V8 Roadster out for its first spin of the year. The destination? The scenic city of Lublin.
Using that opportunity a good well skilled friend of mine captured a series of photos under the cover of night.

As we were driving around the city, we sought out unique locations, aiming not to duplicate the scenes captured with the DB7.

I'm really proud of the final look achieved with the complete styling package for the V12S version, which includes a recently added ducktail spoiler that visually broadens the rear end of the car, all crafted by our ECPS Group team. The highlight for me is the glistening carbon under the streetlights, known as "mirror weave," on the front grille and splitter.

A huge shout-out to my team for their exceptional work and to Adrian for capturing these moments on camera!

Michal, beautiful Vantage! Green truly one of the best colors on an Aston Martin.

I bought your carbon fiber hood vents for my V8 last summer. Your carbon fiber work is fantastic , perfect as AM factory. In CA, LA area . Haven’t had mine out much this winter either, between work and the rain.

I thought of you Michal, when I recently saw a picture of the Valour.
The rear window has been covered with a (probably carbon fibre) louvred moulding.
I presume there must still be glass in the tailgate, otherwise it could get cold and draughty.

Wonder if some Vantage owners would like that carbon fibre part, to change the appearance of their car?

I don't think so.

Aston community is specific. 95% wouldn't like to do it. 4% would say they would like, but never do. 1% would actually do it. Too big investment to make it
