Vanquish jumps off the shelf.

[brakedwell]

I took my car in for a service this morning and indulged myself in a bit of window shopping. Had a good look at the £232K Skyfall Silver Vanquish in the showroom - with the bonnet up. When I enquired about the attached battery charger I was told they were making sure the battery was fully charged before the new owner collected it this after. I have to say Skyfall Silver looks suspiciously like Titanium, which is no longer listed.

Naughty naughty Yeti!
Brave man that registers a car of that value with barely a couple of weeks before a change of year. Depreciation , What Depreciation!

Do to bonnet vents not have any mesh in them like the DB9/Ss? It doesn't look like they do in the top pic.

Interesting to see how they have managed jack the basic price by £40k on the extras

It had acres of carbon fibre to be paid for and the "Titanium" paint was extra, of course

Ceratinly does. Guess the bonnet closes onto a fixed vent..?

Nick will not be catching a train back to Rugby until after 8. Last seen in a pub in EC3, heading for a wine bar - in typicaly good form!

Ah another busy day at work for Nick then!

Is that a V12V roadster next to it? Think it looks good in Skyfall . Its an interesting colour that can look chrome in certain lights.

Notice that there is no door keyhole for an emergency key?

There is one. It's just not next to the door handle
