This YouTuber had a pretty significant issue with his Aston Martin DB12 and he had to take it directly to the automaker to help with it, the eye-watering cost of the total repair snuck into a six-figure territory.
The luxury British car came to him with just 39 miles on the clock but was completely impossible to drive, something that only Aston Martin could resolve.
The DB12 had to spend a whole month at Aston Martin, and once it was returned it had some minor faults that the YouTube team had to fix.
Even though it started crash-damaged, the luxury British car looked in mint-condition, but unfortunately it’s almost perfect condition came with a very high total repair cost.

Help me, Aston Martin, you are my only hope…
This YouTuber is well-known for rebuilding crashed supercars from completely destroyed to almost brand new, and it only costs the most eye watering amount of money you can think of.
Mat Armstrong previously managed to get a rebuilt Lamborghini Revuelto back to a condition worthy of a multi-country road trip, so this Aston Martin was going to prove no problem for the British YouTuber.
The Aston Martin DB12 in question came to him in a sorry state following a severe car crash and while it looked rebuilt to brand new and only came with 39 miles on the clock, it was not driving.
Some software coding issues were preventing the supercar from starting and this was only something Aston Martin could resolve, with some minor other issues that it came with.
Initially Aston Martin got the DB12 running, but it was stuck in limp mode and had some faults on the dashboard and with overheating.
After a month away at Aston Martin, the supercar returned and looked brand new without the overheating or dashboard issues, some minor faults remained for the team to work on however.
The total repair cost is in six-figure territory
The car looked in a spectacular condition and it drove smoothly, quietly and most importantly, not in limp-mode, Mat was clearly pleased with the car, but the cost was mind-boggling.
The total cost of the parts, rebuild and repairs came to a whopping $173,928.54 or thereabouts, meaning that the car cost an eye-watering amount, but when a new one goes for over $200,000 it doesn’t seem too bad.
Mat’s only gone and done it again, we wish him miles of smiles in his rebuilt Aston martin DB12.
