Need some advice please...

just test driven a db9 volante 55 plate with only 5ooo miles, however there was a lot of vibration in the steering especially over 60mph...the car pulled slightly to the left, I am concerned with the vibrations of the steering wheel, is this normal for a db9 volante???

Obviously my concern is that it may have had a front end crash or it could be something small like tracking...any advice would be greatly appreciated??

okay in the first place the volante's are not as firm as the coupe, if the car has been stood for a long time and with that mileage it has not done a lot, the tyres may have flat spots which normally sort themselves out with a bit of running, or the wheels could just want balancing, with the pull this may have just been following the camber of the road, for this i would get a wheel alignment check, or possibly even just setting the tyre pressure correctly is one of the nearside tyre pressure low, overall i would not be two concerned, if worried get the car inspected, and if the faults are what i think, then to get 4 wheels balanced, tyre pressures checked and adjusted, and a fully steering and suspension setup should be no more than about £150.00, haveing the setup done professionally can make a big difference to handling and tyre wear,
