James has a great reputation, well deserved in my recent experience.Friendly, competent and enthusiastic, a much better choice than going to the main dealer network.

Amazing service from James at DAE, I was struggling to have my clutch replaced on a Aston Martin DBS manual, was let down by the dealer network.Spoke to James we managed to source the correct parts he collected and returned the vehicle in an enclosed trailer 5 hours journey each way! the car drives perfect this was all done on a tight timeline too.This company went above and beyond, real good experience dealing with them and the price charged was very fair far cheaper than what the dealers quoted.Service: Transmission

James and his team sorted an ABS issue on my DB9 after many failed attempts by others. Their knowledge, professionalism, courtesy and help was really appreciated. I would not hesitate to use them again, and only wish I had been aware of DAE sooner. Thoroughly recommended, and thank you!Services: Electrical repair

I had Porterfield R4-S brakepads installed to replace the very noisy OEM pads on my 2019 Vantage. James and his team are very friendly and professional, and certainly know their stuff. Highly recommended!Service: Auto brake replacement

After the local Aston dealership gave me the run around on a tie-rod for my Vantage, James came to the rescue and was able to ship the part from over the pond directly to me. Saved me a ton of headaches, money and time. Quality parts, fair pricing and above & beyond communication from James. Highly recommend for all AM needs.Service: Steering & suspension repair

James replaced the worn out clutch on my manual V8 Vantage with a new twin plate. I couldn?t be happier with the level of service, quality of the work and the result. Has transformed the driving experience!

I got in contact with DAE for velocityAP 200 cell cats for my V6 f type and they were extremely helpful and posted them to me due to how far away they are. I then followed up with with an order for velocityAP lower supercharger pulley and map and I received the same fantastic service. Fantastic company and James seems to work every hour god sends replying to emails. 10/10 I?ll be using them again.

DAE have recently fitted a twin plate clutch, air filters, back box delete kit and velocity AP map to my V8 vantage. This has literally transformed my car.The service and knowledge from DAE was excellent. James is an absolute credit to DAE and I am very happy I trusted the reviews and recommendations of the Aston Martin community to use these guys.The facilities and equipment is incredibly and in my opinion are much better than what main dealers offer. But the most important part is that DAE present themselves so well, are extremely polite and really care about their customers.Although it?s a bit of a journey for me to get to DAE. I will now use these guys only for any work that is required on my car.Many thanks.

An extremely professional setup. The team at David Appleby Engineering really know their stuff and their work is top quality. They know your Aston better than anyone, even more so than the main dealers. My car is a V8 Vantage S and the team has a variety of solutions to make the already brilliant car even better. Today I had some basic preventative maintenance work which consisted of a replaced broken exhaust valve and uprated hydraulic lines for my SS2 transmission due to the original hoses showing signs of degradation. I?m a first time customer and was impressed with their punctuality, pricing and hospitality. I won?t take my car anywhere else now. Great job guys, looking forward to the next time. Many thanks.
