new db7 owner, recommendations pls-

[The Saint 911]

hi All-, i at last bought a db7 manual which is what i was looking for, with a recent new suspension and whole new aston sports exhaust , and immaculate- it was to good to miss, so i get it end of week,- couple of questions- It has the speedline alloy wheels, the ones with chrome on the outside- the chrome needs a little work to get up to perfect condition- Anyone know if these are easily rectified or what to use to re-chrome- Also the interior is immaculate but the leather round the gear knob cud do with replacing anyone know who cud recommend for a small job-
Also Im in Chislehurst, Anyone recommend a place to get it Serviced when it needs one- Thks again for all prev advice,

My gearknob requires recovering too - let me know if you find anyone please

Pugsley & Lewis in Beckenham are a good local specialist for servicing. I've used them for a few years (current car a DB7 Vantage Volante Manual) and I can highly recommend them.

Which model Speedline wheels came on the car?

[The Saint 911]

hi, there the 18inch speedline alloys, the alluminium/chrome on the outside of the wheel then with the many many screws going round the wheel and silver alloy in the centre

[VirginiaUSA]

If they're five spoke, they sound like the 3-piece Speedline Aluminum Alloy Mistral wheels. Nice.

BUNKOBOB!, thks for recommending Pugsey!, cars in there at the mo getting once over, Thks Again-

[Bunkyobob]

Is it a nice deep maroon colour? If so I saw it yesterday when I popped into P&L to book in a service before heading down to the South of France later this summer.

Hope you had a chance to look at some of the earlier DBs they are working on - I always pop in rather than phoning just to have an excuse to oggle some lovely metal.

Hi - yes, thats the one, they ve done all the bits i wanted as well as giving it the once over, Thanks Again!
