Paul, the current owner of the car said he bought it relatively recently, but he wasn't the one who imported it from the UK. Perhaps a good question for when I see him next time. I still haven't fulfilled my lifelong desire to have an Aston of my own, but that's purely due to unfavorable timing over the last decade. I am totally confident it will happen in the next two years, and it's a toss between the second generation Vanquish and DBS, so I intentionally took a number of images of the two next to each-other.... Cheers, Filip
