One of which is LHD.
Did someone really pay 90K for an October 2010 V12V. If so, I may have missed my window of opportunity already.
There is a 2013 V12V for sale that I am aware of for £90K. After Thursday it will be with a dealer and cost £94K Did someone really pay 90K for an October 2010 V12V. If so, I may have missed my window of opportunity already.

I gathered that but without an advert (and not knowing him personally) I don't even know what colour it is.
Pretty sure it's Ceramic grey...Sounds a great deal to me, I'd go for it to have a later car than my 2010, but I'm in the camp that has to have lightweights seats.
Sounds gorgeous, but I too feel lightweight seats are a must.
Being 6' I personally found the sports seats raised my legs too close to the steering wheel :-(
Anyone else know how many V12V manuals were finished in morning frost
ie would waiting for a MF car with lightweight seats to be offered for sale be foolish? Funds becoming available relatively soon and will be burning a hole in my pocket, don't want to burn my leg waiting :-)
Cheers in advance.

Phil (Mako_V12V) is your man for such stats.ie would waiting for a MF car with lightweight seats to be offered for sale be foolish? Funds becoming available relatively soon and will be burning a hole in my pocket, don't want to burn my leg waiting :-)
Who says you have to wait for one to be advertised? If you have cash burning a hole in your pocket, suggest you find an owner on here who has a MFW V12V with lightweight seats and make them an offer they just couldn't turn down.
Would be ideal if you could find one that was 2012 reg with low mileage and that had been extremely well cared for.

How come you are selling?However if an offer too good to turn down was made, well that's a different matter and given that somebody posted saying they were looking for a car just like mine and they had money burning a hole it had to be said. Would need to be good however to tempt me to sell privately - I think I posted my threshold in a recently deleted thread, and I know what the dealer offered me!

I have made a couple of enquiries of late for a V12VS but so far the cost of change has put me off so I'm in no hurry.
I know what you mean.Edited by AdamV12V on Wednesday 16th July 22:20
However, it surely won't be long before they do something more substantial, as they are not exactly flying off the shelves.
Just as well I prefer the old V12V, I suppose.

Only sat in / driven two cars back to back - V8V with sports seats and V12V with lightweight seats.
Perhaps I have long legs???
Will re investigate though so as not to restrict my options.
I have owned vantages with both sports seats and lightweight seats and I am most definitely in the camp of somebody who would only buy an Aston with lightweights too. Providing you fit in them, they are considerable better as they give far more support, extended leg room, are more comfortable especially on long journeys and most of all really suit the character of the V12V far better. The downsides are a lack of side airbags and the heated option, but as mine at half alcantara (chancellor red) and not as cold as leather I have never really missed the heated option.Perhaps I have long legs???

Must be body shape dependent I suppose as I find them uncomfortable, hard to get out of and lacking as much adjustment, heating and side airbags. Sheeesh gimme chance...did say I was out earlier.
Okay....I have 18 UK MF white V12V's however my database is not complete yet. 9 of these have LW seats, 7 HSS and two unknown. The earlier V12V's tended to have LW's (up to 2010ish) whilst later cars mainly had HSS.
Btw, i only have 7 UK Stratus white cars listed so this is the rarer white.
I also have 2 white V12V's which are unknown whites and 1 other white I cant say (special order in Chile).
HTH and I await your imminent response!
