I agree, those Vantage wheels really put the DBX707s to shame. Was there an OE finish that's less black?
Soldato
To be honest, black wheels look terrible on most cars.
Yeah...respectfully the Vantage wheels really do highlight how bad black wheels are (to photograph nicely at least).

Love that Aston, what a unique colour.
That's a lot of buttons in the center console
what do they all do?

It’s an Aston! Ejector seat, missiles, oil slick amongst other cool stuff.

Now I feel silly for having to ask!

The DBX is on it’s winter wheels currently. They only offer the 22” “sport” style in matte black when you purchase the winter wheel/tyre package. It makes sense tbf as the other wheel options are much more intricate and will look worse when filthy during the winter months.

They have the function labelled on each one. I like having tactile buttons, much better than a touchscreen.Love that Aston, what a unique colour.

Completely agree, sometimes I find using a touchscreen can be pretty distracting compared to buttons

One of the reasons I went for a pre-owned G21 M340i rather than a new LCI, even though my budget put a new one in reach. Much prefer the mix of buttons/touchscreen in the pre-LCI compared to the vast expanse of glass stretched over the dash in the LCI.
That, no actual gear lever and a few other things meant a fully spec'd pre-LCI was the right choice, for me at least.
At least you have no rain..It’s cold up here:
its been chucking it down in the south east all night & not due to stop until early afternoon so cannot even head out for a blast yet!

It's annoying. Sunday mornings are about the only time of the week I get to go out for a decent drive on empty roads. Weather forecast? Heavy rain from 5AM until gone midday
Unless it is raining so hard you're in danger of getting washed away or you have completely bald tyres (or trofeos etc) then your car will probably survive getting wet. Get out and drive
I'm sure it will, I just don't enjoy driving in heavy rain as much. I was out last Sunday when it had rained overnight; roads were still wet, but it had stopped raining by sunrise and turned into a cracking drive.Unless it is raining so hard you're in danger of getting washed away or you have completely bald tyres (or trofeos etc) then your car will probably survive getting wet.

Unfortunately, mean't still having to play the high stakes game of "Puddle of Pothole?". Still, no casualties yet.
Cracking drive today surprised at how good the 600 LT is in the wet, drove back in the dry and my god this car is mental cannot wait to get on track on it as almost feel it’s going to be like driving around with a cheat code enabled. The mechanical traction the car has just seems absurd.
Few more pictures of it very dirty and some other much cleaner cars.
Clean again!
