VIN 598

Hi, thanks for this, did you buy #598 from Long Island, NY?

[CPBRI]

No, AM of New England.

Interesting. I saw an advert by Long Island selling #598 with 0 miles so I guess these were the supplying dealership and you are the second owner?

[CPBRI]

It may have come from LI on a swap, but was sold as a new car to me.

First one I have seen in this colour, I think it looks stunning. Hopefully even George will agree!

Wops, just posted the same pics in the photo thread.

Adam - thanks for your post - the first one on here for nearly 2 months! I was just thinking the other day how I must update this thread lol

Steve/Trey - congrats on your new cars, and thanks for the pictures and info. I will be in touch shortly to ask for more info to complete my Register entries for both cars! I try and compile details similar to what you see on the AM used car website

And I can confirm, that is the first V12V I will have listed in AMBRG!!

Gorgeous car - I actually saw it on the production line earlier this year

Now that the season is well and truly over and many a (UK!) V12V will be hibernating over winter, including mine, I thought it would be a good time for an update.
It was quite slow over mid-2012 adding to the Register but these last couple of months has typically seen a surge in supply!

I'm still to find a solution as to how to obtain the last 3 vin numbers from foreign reg plates and therefore the many large holes in the Register will be mainly for European cars, with a few RoTW cars (excl USA) thrown in for good measure.

The Register now holds 523 vehicle records of varying completeness as follows:-

Race car = 1
Prototypes = 8
Vin 001-1000 = 316
Vin 1001-1114 (highest so far) = 19
Unknown vin = 179 (some of these will be duplicates due to plate changes in UK & Europe)

The Country locations of 001-1114 are:-

Unknown - 6
Australia - 6
Belgium - 5
Canada - 2
Switzerland - 7
Germany - 3
France - 1
UK - 194
Italy - 2
UK Jersey - 2
Luxemberg - 1
Netherlands - 7
New Zealand - 1
USA - 98

Of the 179 unknowns their country locations are:-

UK - 18
Austria - 3
Andorra - 1
Australia - 6
Belgium - 19
Brazil - 1
Switzerland - 10
China - 1
Czech Republic - 2
Germany - 53
France - 23
Hong Kong - 2
Italy - 2
Japan - 1
Luxemberg - 10
Monaco - 5
Netherlands - 6
Poland - 2
Saudi - 1
S Africa - 2
Singapore - 2
Ukraine - 1
UAE - 3
USA - 4
Unknown - 1

Total countries/principalities represented = 26!!

Hope you find this of interest, and keep the contributions coming.

Cheers - Phil

Great info Phil. Any chance of a breakdown of colours?

[Arjxh56]

I was in Gaydon the other week and 3 people from Japan were with us, one being the owner of V12V.

George - this is #945 and was for sale in the USA for quite some time. The pictures dont do it justice though as the lighting is all wrong:-

Oooh I like that a lot. It looks like it suffers the same as Pentland Green at being unphotographable as it's proper colour!

[Mako V12V]

Any help identifying this colour please - is it a green or a silver?

[DB9 Ian P]

Cheers Phil.
