    Beautiful car! I think this model has better lines than any of James Bond's Aston Martins of the past two decades. Nice plate too! It's a shame Aston Martin couldn't come up with a more elegant way to integrate the plate into the car's design.

    I agree, I have seen other owners use the tow hook thread in the front lower passenger side.

    Ah. Even the European plates don't mesh with the front, though at least European plates are better looking. I've always admired the states that don't require front plates.

    Welcome!
    Beautiful car. I've just sold mine after 7 years ownership. Same colour too - good choice!!
    In those 7 years, it was also pretty fault free too! Very reliable cars. The only issues I had were bubbling paint issues around the door handles and mirror and the occasional emission warning light caused by the 02 sensor - easily cancelled/reset.

    With regards to the number plate, the plinth (in the uk at least) is easily removed and the number plate simply mounted lower - with sticky pads!

    Enjoy the ride!! B-)

    Yes unfortunately, in Canada, several provinces require front plates. Here in Ontario the fine is $85.00

    Thank you Uncle27. I am the second owner and when I saw the colour and interior and options, I knew it was the one. I agree how fault free. To date, other than normal oil changes etc, I have only had to replace the battery. You also have fine taste :)
