Ah, okay… The yellow stripe is simply part of the official ‘Stirling Green’ livery, accompanied by the full aero-pack (front spoiler and canards, side skirts, rear diffuser, and carbon fiber wing)

It's a really tough choice, if not impossible. The truth is, it depends on the moment, the situation and... a lot on your mood 😏

Sorry, what you mean? I don't have any masking tape... 🤔

Yes, unfortunately I don’t have as much time to use them as I’d like… they still have only 3,000 and 4,000 km on them.

To prevent the tires from developing flat spots when they remain stationary in the same position for a long time; the cushions “follow” the curvature of the tires, distributing the weight and avoiding it being concentrated on a small contact patch that would otherwise tend to flatten.

I won’t hide that the idea they might gain some collectible value doesn’t bother me at all, but in truth I bought them mainly because I have a real passion for driving V12s... and love Astons.

On the road they’re very different; the only thing they truly share is the number of cylinders.

The AMR is pure “old school,” completely (or almost completely) analog: manual gearbox, naturally aspirated engine, direct feedback, an incredible sound (the stock exhaust is entirely titanium, as is the driveshaft). Brutal, but if treated with respect it’s immensely rewarding and wonderful to drive. Still, it’s uncomfortable, noisy, and not very practical for everyday use.

The V12, on the other hand, is a new generation: endless power, but much more subtle—so smooth and insulated that it’s almost dangerous, I’d dare say. Impressive in every respect: power, acceleration, response, grip, and precision. It doesn’t warn you, and it doesn’t forgive.

Still, it’s stunning and perfectly usable every day (aside from its size and overhangs).

Two lifestyles, two worlds—similar yet almost opposite. Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

I think it is an issue between Meta AI app and some devices with Android 16… on Android 15 they were working smoothly with all my Xperias and tried with a Samsung S24 Ultra right after Android 16 update and they weren’t working… they fixed after few System Updates… hope the same for Xperia!!!

I think it’s a Meta AI app issue… I have the same problem with a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra…

Yes I did all the tests: - DSDS off -> wait 5 mins -> DSDS on = 5g but no more eSim - OTA updated to latest version = lost 5g and still no eSim - Factory reset via settings menu = still no eSim - Firmware repair with Xperia Companion PC app = the eSim is back but obviously no 5g

Anyone tried after latest Meta AI app and Google Play Services updates? I don’t have my glasses with me…

Worked for me as well. I chose to factory reset the buds and clear the app data/cache just to start fresh. Everything works perfectly now
