AM buyer guides
I am currently a Porsche owner and interested in AM. In Porsche world, there are known issues like IMS bearing, bore scoring for certain models, etc.
How about AM? Are there any major design fault or year of model I should avoid?
Any pointers to buyer guides are highly appreciated.

If you are looking for a DB11 or older Aston, then check out "The Definitive Guide to New Gaydon Era Aston Martin" By Grant Neal. It has detailed info on all the back story, models, options and common issues.

Not sure if DB9 has the same issues but I believe they are pretty similar to the V8 vantage. This video helped me a lot before purchasing mine
.
Things I had to fix when I purchased my 2007 with 18k miles:
- Doors struts. Symptom: door doesn't stay open
- Door module. Symptom: door won't unlock from inside when pulling on the handle
- Gas cap. Symptom: Engine light on, small EVAP leak
- Nav screen gears. Symptom: Nav screen doesn't pop up
Everything is pretty minor and is an easy DIY fix. Engine wise, they are known to be pretty solid.
