Here's how my man-maths works:

- I currently own a V8VR worth approx £52-£55k
- I pay £600/month in finance repayments, and owe about £15k on it
- For £20k (settle the finance, and top-up the £55k p/x value to £60k with another £5k) I could get into V12 Vantage
- My monthly finance repayments would go up by £400/month (manageable)
- In two year's time, the exercise has cost me £44k ((24 x £999) + £20k).
- If I can sell the car for £104k (33% depreciation) after that two years, I pay off the £60k balloon, and I'm back where I started.

So, so many flaws in this plan, I know, but this is an insight into I how I end up emailing Stratstones and asking if they do actually have a V12VR and what the spec is... smile
Any news biggrin

A few discussions happened on Thurs and Fri with your friends in Hagley.

Will advise when I have a proper update. 90% sure it won't happen.

Good colour options? Can't be that big a choice unless they have produced or are going to produce more than Alwin has on his register?

Lovely colour - hint of blue In strong sunlight. Lightweights are great but I took the heated Sport Seats and don't regret my decision. That's a strong price though - has it got B & O to get north of £160k? Fired mine up today - lot of money but don't regret it one bit!
