Thought it was probably time I stopped lurking and shared my GT.

2017 model, one owner. Sold my DB9 to purchase and very happy.

Mods so far:

  • later style front end
  • new wheels
  • AU Car head unit
  • Exhaust Mod
  • Internal LED lights
Absolutely loving it !

Looks fantastic. Great garage but looks tricky to get in & out of ?

Yes I am really pleased with it ... I had it built just pre last lockdown, opening is 16ft so it’s fine and it’s 36 ft long so plenty of room to manoeuvre.

I have been very fortunate to also build a double car-port at the front of the property which is clearly much easier access, so tend to rotate with my SL55, Classic Range Rover, BMW 840ci depending on which is in favour :)

Very fortunate in many ways ....

When I say the title I though you were going to let me have a go.... ;)

Stunning GT...The new front really does bring the car up to date and makes the early ones look....well..... older. Love it and well done on the purchase.

Very lovely cars+garage+carport. Well done!

Now, who else do I know with a Rangie, a GranTurismo and Merc? I wonder...

Brilliant, absolutely wonderful. Not quite sure how you got away with that one but do tell...

Great photos, agree with Phil that the last nose looks great on the GT.

What year DB9 did you have? Looks like it's not the final facelift from the profile photos. And how does it compare?

Yes I agree the front end really transforms it for me ... all be it that it was still a beautiful car when I collected it:

I had a 2007 DB9 ... dream car ... had always wanted one and managed to eventually get for my 40th ....

I had it for 4 years and did 30k + miles on it as used it as my daily during the week and was travelling from Bristol to Manchester a number of times per week during that period.

I loved it but my children are older 12 & 15 now and couldn’t get in the back any longer so the GT far more reasonable from that angle,

In addition I drive to and from my flat in London every week (well pre lockdown I did) ... and I have to say the GT is a far more relaxed, comfy ride ..... maybe I am just getting old .... :) ... but the DB9 felt like the GT when in Sport mode if that makes sense?

The Aston was a stunning car though and will forever have a special place in my heart that’s for sure !

Luckily a friend of mine purchased it off me ... so I still see it regularly.
