It's been a while, but new car time!

[[ui]ICEMAN]

I know it's been quite some time since I posted here as I've just been so busy in the last year, though I do still read the forum regularly!

Unfortunately someone rear ended my 991 C2S last week in a new mustang, completely destroying his car in the process as he came off the road afterwards and ran into a storefront (he blacked out prior to hitting me). I ended up just trading the car in and letting the dealer fix the car through his insurance before I got hurt too badly on trade in value (accident was declared on the CarFax as I had to stop to get the other guy out of his car before it caught fire and give him medical attention).

Out of all the cars I've ever owned, I missed my Aston Martin the most, there's just something about them that I absolutely adore so I took the opportunity to jump into a 2015 Vantage GT (N430 as it's called back in Europe) which is essentially a Vantage S minus the carbon front and rear splitters and significantly cheaper too which is always a bonus.

Some quick pics below, sorry they're not all that great, one thing I'm not, is a good photographer.

interior is very marmite! but I do like them, any pics of the 911 after the crash?

Not a fan of the GT stripe down the side, but other than that it gives me a semi like every other aston. Nice car

Is the handbrake on the right of the driver on a UK car?

 

[Sin_Chase]

That is a thing of beauty

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm *Drools uncontrollably*

UCF? I was there in the mid 90s

 

[skaif]

That is gorgeous

Is the handbrake on the right of the driver on a UK car?

Probably...although I'd always feel lile I'm parking a van when they put them down the side like that

 

[Janesy B]

Would have thought they would replace the level with an electronic handbrake by now?

 

[GeForce]

That interior is fantastic! Not a huge fan of the stripe though

 

[ShivP]

Very nice

 

[Rilot]

Very nice. I thought you had a Ferrari. Did you trade it for the 991?

 

[^JP^]

The correct number of pedals, 10/10

 

[mrk]

Really nice, but... but it's white, inside AND out!

 

[Felix]

Nice!

As for the other guy, if you are going to black out and crash into someone make sure you do it to a medical professional! Well done for helping him out.

 

[Rybo89]

It is nice but very white.

 

[elmuzzy66.]

Lovely car but imo an aston shouldn't have tacky decals like the grey GT running along the side of it. Still enjoy another great drive.
