      loving the car mate, wheels look great. not sure what your future plans are for the car but david appleby engineering are a well known aston specialist for service/upgrades etc.
      in my opinion the black boot strip needs wrapping blue, it looks unfinished, sorry for the criticism buddy :(
      oh and straight pipe it for a laugh :)
      keep up the good work and enjoy the car

      Just a tip Chris, to grow your channel faster, you should start making TH-cam shorts. You won't make much money from them but they will drive traffic to your channel. I will start with some of your old builds just to see how it goes.

    I've been following your adventures with the Aston. It's quite inspiring what you're doing 👍 a bit of hard work and determination goes along way. Well done Chris 👏👏

    I said it last time and i will say it again.. that car is gorgeous! It looks like it would be on a poster or something. Hats off to you chris. Stunning.

    Well done Chris, cracking result! There's also one thing I really appreciate about you, the fact you're not riding on Mat's coattails: very rare cameo from him, you don't use much of his garage and ramp and don't even use the same "helpers" (Wheels company, mechanics etc). You can be very proud doing it all alone just like he did, I'm confident you'll be just as successful, give it 2 years or 3, no more.
    Again, well done and can't wait to see your road trip (with Mat I'd assume though haha)

    I have a V8 Vantage S which has the same body kit as the V12 S (other than the hood) and it came with a slatted grill. Now, I've blacked out all the chrome, so I originally changed it to the AMR mesh grill, but I missed the distinctive slats, so I got the Carbon Edition (no CF involved) black slatted grille.
    And I'd have kept the red calipers on this car precisely because it tied into the stitching inside. My stitching is silver, so I changed my red calipers to Lime Essence
