That sounds so heavenly! Nothing can replace a V12 soundtrack. <3
V8 of course =)
No, what actually happens is for you to say ‘Oh, I’ve had a Crisis!’ Then after that faint in happiness. Not speed.
It’s an Aston, so of course there’s an engine related warning light :’) Still, that noise tho <3
You can see the fuel level going down but who cares with that engine noise?
On that speed you can see this on every car doesn’t matter if v12 or 4 pot like my cupra. On mine its even worse the 55L tank is way to small for that car. I’m only getting between 450 and 550 km on a single tank. Now imagine high speed autobahn runs with it where the economy gage shows numbers like 20L/100km+. Luckly its only the tank size wich bothers me and not how much fuel it needs ;)
Check Engine light on? WHO CARES IT’S AN ASTON, LET’S TRY A TOP SPEED RUN!
no need to check engine, it’s still there obviously :p
Dad’s old boss had an Aston DB9 - the check engine light used to come on constantly but for desperately stupid things.
Need your regular oil change? Check Engine light.
Filler cap not screwed on tight enough? Check Engine light.
Forgot to clear any codes? Check engine light.
Filter needs cleaning? Check engine light.
Check engine light is on

I love that sound so much xD
