Also, localised paint repairs are common with collectable and classic cars and if they have been professionally carried out then they may be impossible to detect, even if we see the car in person. So, unless we state otherwise, please assume that any vehicle could have had remedial bodywork at some point in its life.

The problem with original Edition as composed, is it was a dry English cologne-style a la Wellington or Blenheim, amped up with big doses of citrus oils, nutmeg, clove, cedarwood, sandalwood, and oakmoss for that "80's oomph". There are a few minor flaws that we feel it is our duty to point out, none of which spoil the overall effect. Most noticeable is the rear bumper, which has a few lumps and bumps, and you will find the odd scratch here and there, such as the one on the bonnet (picture 139). There is also a ding in the offside rear wing (picture 79). not be liable for any direct, indirect or consequential loss or damage arising under these terms and I won't say modern is objectively bad, but the focus has shifted to the white florals and spices at the core of lavender/geranium in the heart. Cedar I still get, and some call modern a "nutmeg bomb" like Cacharel or Bijan, which is also fair. The citrusy opening is actually only marginally perceived, but the floral notes of the second row, such as cyclamen, carnation and some rose geranium and lavender, come through more strongly. But it is above all mace that dominates here.With limited funds, the DB7 is essentially as reworked version of the Jaguar XJS platform and the six-cylinder variant was based on the Jaguar AJ6 engine. It was not just the Jaguar parts bin that was raided, as you will find Mazda 323 rear lights, door handles from a 323 Estate, indicators from a MX-5, interior door mirror switches from a Ford Scorpio and even mirrors from a Citroen CX. None of this diminishes the car’s considerable appeal. I know what information I provide will NOT be exhaustive, and people will stump me with new finding like they did on my Quorum thread, forcing me to research answers for them; but at least since there are SIGNIFICANT differences between current and vintage Dunhill Edition (1984), I want to help "steer the ship" of people looking for the former. The wheels look to be in fine fettle, and each is clad in an almost new Bridgestone tyre. Care taken with choice of rubber is generally a sure sign of careful and considered classic car ownership. Here at Fragrance Direct we have a fantastic selection of Dunhill fragrances and toiletries on offer and our customers are particularly fond of this Dunhill Edition eau de toilette spray for men for its rich and masculine aroma that makes it ideal to wear for any occasion.

Amongst the paperwork for the car is the original invoice from Aston Martin dated 18th September 1998. The DB7 is finished in Platinum Silver, a classic colour and one which shows off the graceful lines to good effect. And if you will pardon the indulgence, let us quote the PR blurb once more:

Recently Viewed

The Alfred Dunhill DB7 has been designed to Alfred Dunhill specifications as a showcase for its most contemporary pieces. Each of these masculine accessories reflects the evolution in design of motor cars over recent years from angular to softer and more fluid lines.”

Invoices abound, mostly with Aston Martin dealerships in the UK and Geneva. We can see a new battery was fitted in 2017 and clutch master cylinder in 2019. Extensive and regular servicing has been carried out, so brush up on your French and have a read of what has been done recently. In short, a sort of Raiders-style buying guide that people with vintage bottles older than mine can also add to for sake of completion.I know what information I provide will NOT be exhaustive, and people will stump me with new findings like they did on my Quorum thread, forcing me to research answers for them; but at least since there are SIGNIFICANT differences between current and vintage Dunhill Edition (1984), I want to help "steer the ship" of people looking for the former. Somehow this Dunhill edition is different than you would expect. At least I feel that way. I also admit that I am reaching my limits when it comes to the classification of the ingredients. As an aromatic, this is a ruggedly masculine scent. Aromatics tend to be based around herbaceous notes, such as cumin and mint. They are related to fougere, but more austere. When this particular product is first applied, bergamot, basil, lavender, clary sage, petitgrain and lemon hit the nose. Next middle notes of cinnamon, geranium, nutmeg, lily-of-the-valley and clove burst on to the scene. As these fade away, they divulge the base of sandalwood, amber, musk and cedar.
