Phil, Sad day today. My P&J had to go today as part of the deal on the new V12VR and whilst at the showroom, Grange Exeter, I saw a New Hammerhead Silver V12V with chasis number 991. Is that the highest number so far?
Say hello to Lloyd for me.

Morning Phil. Just back from Stratstone Hagley. White with Obsidian. Tried to get spec sheet but was sold so no good. Wait for it.......... Chassis No 1020
Thanks Nick. It's no shock that they've gone past #1000 now but as long as they dont leave production open ended then hopefully numbers wont get higher than 1200 cars.
Which white was it...stratus (flat) or Morn Frost? Any photos or additional spec?
I'm struggling to pick these new cars up for my Register as they tend not to be advertised anywhere frown

Robbo - congrats on your purchase! No.858 I presume? Do JCT still have a plethora of V12V's for sale, lol.

Wowser, these cars just look stuning in any colour! Congrats again!

Phil - No JCT600 have had a bit of a run on their V12V stock since I bought my car. When I bought my new MF V12V (3 weeks ago) they had 5 in stock, plus my old trade in making them have 6 in total. Since then they have sold 3 (including Robbo's) of these cars and have almost sold a 4th I am told. Looks like its silly season for V12V sales right now!

Thanks Tim, this is #258, which i have the details of from a PH forum member I think.
My mate went to Le Mans recently and saw loads of V8V's but no V12V's so did not acquire any European examples frown
There is a dealer in Switzerland who has a new Carbon Black and a used Meteorite Silver V12V in. I've emailed them (in German) for details but have heard nothing back yet frown
Getting the European ones is turning out to be a real pain in zee arse!!

I thought it might have been. Shame he was headed in the other direction to me.

Didn't get chasis numbers I'm afraid but there were half a dozen or so V12Vs in various states of production on the line when I was at the factory yesterday

I was passenger'ing with my friend in a blue Boxster S - new model. We had just parked heading Southbound on the road side as you approached a roundabout somewhere between Grasse and Castellane. I stood watching you go past - looked great of course.

Where were you coming from?

Ah ok - I was looking out for fellow Astonauts - spotted zero. There was a distinct lack of anything vaguely exotic all day. Probably good as my OH was nervous enough as a passenger :@)

We were on our way from Éze on the south coast up to a rather classy Formula 1 hotel just outside of Grenoble.

By conincidence I was checking out your website on the route Napolean the night before we left - small world.

Have fun!
