I have absolutely loved my two years with a Sports Pack 4.7 Roadster much more fun than the coupe IMO & it didn't miss a beat, sounded AWESOME roof down and it even went like a bat out of hell after the v8 had loosened up.

BUT you know what it's like after a year you get the change itch, after two the itch is sooo strong
and then Aston started tempting all of us with Homecomings & dealer drives & then they try & tempt you further............. wicked wicked people... evil , with winter coming it's probably not the best time to change but it is the best time to do those deals and despite not wanting a dark colour to keep clean I saw a Quantum car (which changes colour with the light from black through brown, aubergine & grey) and it so suits the cars persona IMO that the hook was in..... so a short.. idea aaand the BEAST has arrived, beast by name & beast by nature it should have 666 tattooed under the bonnet.

laugh

I'm holding on to the faint hope they will build a V12 roadster preventing me from going near a V12 coupe.
Not sure how long I'll hold out though!

Especially when I see stuff like that!

Welcome to the dark side,
I Haven't seen a quantum color yet but sure its well flippy it should be amusing to watch people go in to a strange body popping fit while drooling over the transformation.
Have you found the invisible button yet?

good to see Your firing on all cylinders now, a complete engine room with real grunt
Those vents just say sooo much.
Do they snort heat fumes and smoke like a raging bulls nostrils that can be visibly seen inside and out like the tiny Vanquish vents do ?

Grant - Indeed, i've been struggling to keep the mileage down at the moment, driving the blue monster as often as I can.
Being an accountant I hate writing reports, but could provide some statistics from ownership so far lol!
