That's certainly an interesting interior color that I've never seen before. I didn't know Aston made purple.

You might want to check with the Aston Martin Heritage Trust, they'll be able to tell you how rare it is.

[QUOTE=Kalepsis;4906248] Sin duda es un color interior interesante que nunca había visto antes. No sabía que Aston fabricaba púrpura.

Es posible que desee consultar con Aston Martin Heritage Trust, ellos podrán decirle qué tan raro es. [/ QUOTE]

I will do it!

Some more pictures after travelling by the north of Spain: https://flic.kr/s/aHBqjzTwZ6
This time I will avoid to upload all of them on this post...
Check how two cases (one bigger than other) could fitted in the trunk. There was even more extra free space in the sides on the trunk...

Nice ride. My 13 has a 6MT, otherwise kind of similar. Final inspection was even by the same guy, Ahmed.

I wanted to give kudos to whoever the previous owner was. They knew how to get in and out of the drivers seat without breaking down the bolsters. It's rare you see a V8V with any real miles on it to have seats looking that good. The correct way in is to fall kind of backward into the seat missing the lower bolster completely. Getting out is a little more tricky but if you are careful you will preserve the bolsters. The seats are usually the first things that show age. Some of them are pretty bad.

That is a lot of pics to get through, but I understand. It's your new Aston Martin!

Neat interior! Just wondering how do you engage Park on these? On my DB9 the Park button is where your Sport button is.

Thanks for your understanding... I am in love with the car, and I have to say the seats are in superb condition. The Sportshift II transmission with 7 gears is quite good!!!

There is no Park button. Just engage N and the raise the handbrake.
