Should I sell up? - V8V Pics Added

[gorrie]

Not that I'm stalking Lewis... but from another thread:-

The new 'owner' has posted some great pics of it on his website - http://auto.vlan.be/en/second-hand-car/ ... 14482&cc=7

I do miss it, but have a nice new V8 Vantage to cheer me up
....
..
Meteorite grey with 11k miles, V12 clear tail lights, 19s, Sat Nav and black interior - very chuffed!

Sorry should have updated this post...

Yes, I sold it to Hermes in the end. I had LOTS of problems however (which i'm more than happy to share them with anyone who is gong to sell to him in the future). I was close to telling him where to go but had already lined up my new car so just bit the bullet and went along with the sale. Link above for some more pictures - he has made it look nice.

Gooldie; he did mention your car so not sure if he has been in touch?

Anyway, my new car is indeed an Aston Martin V8V Vantage. Meteorite silver (very dark grey), 19" wheels, black leather, sat nav, HID's, upgraded sound system, hands free, integrated phone, 1 previous owner and only 11k miles on the clock. It's currently in having a full service and some V12 goodies fitted to it (clear tail light package being my fav!) and then I can pick it up on Friday.

I was soooo close to buying an Evora however I have always wanted to do the Aston thing and my heart won in the end!

Absolutely stunning!

My GF told me I'm not sophisticated enough for one HA!

[Edin430]

Thanks J

My GF told me I'm not sophisticated enough for one !

Haha i'm probably in the same boat, you should see some of the "WTF" looks I get driving it !

[renmure]

Looks great. They really do exude a touch of class.

[Justin]

How are you finding it so far?

[Edin430]

Apart from the brakes which are squealing a bit...... I love it

Very very comfortable to drive. Extremely easy to drive as well (although it's a deceivingly big car). Makes an unbelievable noise when you give it some (I have removed the fuse that keeps the exhaust valves open 24/7) although i'm trying to stop myself from doing so as the fuel basically evaporates when you do On top of that it's just generally a really nice place to be, one of the nicest interiors that I have sat in. So all good at the moment

Oh and i'm going to be bias but it's just a gorgeous thing to look at

[j2 lot]

A stunning piece of kit.

[Ferg]

Wow, truly stunning. I think I saw you out in it the other day. No regrets?

...oh and your rear number plate is squint. but just 'cause I'm jealous.

[a4drk]

Lovely car - absolutely stunning.
Make sure you chop down your number plates & use sticky pads........
will make it look even cooler.....

Must be your eyes, it's perfectly straight

No regrets at all. Haven't thought twice about the Exige so it was definitely the right move for me!

Oh and short plates will definitely be going on it as soon as the number is transferred over. Although i'm not sure what the rear plinth is like (i.e. it might be brackets with holes etc and might not look good with a short - but i'll try!).

[a4drk]

The front one is on a black plastic holder.
My Z4c had this - i took it off & stuck my shorty A4 DRK on it. -
unfortunately I've got 4 holes in the paintwork ......

Amazing looking car, congrats.
