My most Extravagant Bond purchase yet again

Wasnt going to post but my excitement has got the better of me...
As some of you know I had to let go of my AM DBS in Casino Royale due to a career change. Broke my heart. Ran a beautiful Vantage for the last 3 years, but never quite matched the DBS for all out lunacy, looks or obviously Bond direct connection...
So months of searching were finally rewarded yesterday with a monster day of driving and my new DBS in Quantum Silver was finally in the garage!
Definitely my biggest Bond purchase as prices have steadily risen on DBS's over the last couple of years...
Raining in the NE of the UK last night and indeed most of the journey home so not quite as pristine as when I collected her.
Pictures to follow once the weather improves and shes cleaned up and in front of a nice view...
Just to add, I got her home with all doors in tact, no bullet holes and no run ins with any lorries or Alfa Romeos

You're a lucky man!!! Will you be changing the wheels to movie accurate ones?

Difficult one as the DT ones on are £5800 from AM. The originals are "just" £3300....
Going to see how I feel after a few weeks
Hasnt got the Carbon seats either. My man maths and convincing policy included the 2+2 option for the wee ones. So never going to be completely 100% SA
But close as possible without getting obsessive (and expensive)....
Heres a nice dealer taken pic

KIDDING! Congratulations, glad you got the car you wanted! Looks beautiful! -{ -{
This is my dream and beside it's out of my price range, I have a company car and no need of my own one. But I hope I can have one in the future.
Congratulations! I am VERY envious of you right now! -{
Bond: “I must be dreaming.”
Were both of your Astons in Quantum Silver or was one a Casino Royale Gray?
The wheels (even though they are not SA) look very nice, I wouldn't change them if I were you.
You'd still need a motorised hidden section and a P99 to make it truly SA.
Again, congrats!
I loved it but not so much for the colour, has a lilac look to it due to the flecks... Can also look a bit flat.
Quantum is stunning in real life, darker grey with a bronze fleck. Looks black at night and quite silvery under sunlight...
And agree re DBS looks. Could have bought a new vanquish for the same ££££££'s but just prefer the DBS's shape
The wheels are stunning, will see...
Heres my now sold dbs, for posterity...

Don't drive too fast!
Best,

Congratulations on getting a DBS again -{
I'm seriously jealous - but in a nice way
I'd be terrified of driving one...but if I'm ever in the NE of England I'll let you take me for a drive
*joke. You lucky bastard, congrats and enjoy. -{

The most impressive thing in the photo is the BMT 216A plate!
I know that,circumstance. I bought my db7 between marriages when I lived on my motor yacht and had MONEY, second marriage a step devil and a new child turned my boat into an investment flat and a family house and my db7 into something more economical
Good luck for November, all the best people are born in November and enjoy Italy my friend.... It's my favourite place to travel.
Go every year as Rossi rivals Bond!!! Well just about

I had the pleasure of driving a DB9 at full tilt around Brands Hatch a couple of weeks ago. It was an incredible experience and I can only imagine what it must be like having a DBS sitting in the garage every morning.
The other day I saw one that was L2K 007. That dude is begging for speeding tickets
