Afternoon peeps. There is currently a jet black V12V offered for sale at AM Dubai on AM's used car website:

https://used.astonmartin.com/en-GB/Search/Details~...

Is anyone local to this dealer in the next few days/weeks to obtain the last 4 vin numbers to help me with my V12V Register?

I tried emailing them a couple of years ago when they had a Magma Red V12V for sale but they refused my request.

As I dont have any UAE V12V's on my Register any help would be immensely appreciated wink

Did you get the number from mblade? I have a 6 hour change in Dubai on Friday and was thinking of popping in anyway.

Thanks for your email Mark and info on your V12V, which I'll respond to off forum.

Pete - that would be great if you could obtain this on Friday? You'll need to be discreet though as we all know these vins are top secret!! I only need the last 4 as a minimum (the full vin would be top as my Register does list them where I can get these) so the car can be listed on the register. It should be one of the last 50 odd vins unallocated out of 1376 so you can imagine how keen I am!

Cheers
Phil

I've just noticed that it's an 18 month old car with only 140km on the clock. That drives me nuts and spurs me on to get you the whole VIN mad

Hello Mr Shirt. I think I have a few photos of this car from the internet but obviously none of the vin, so I have no idea which one it is.

I am very keen but not sure which context you mean??!! angel

How does one make contact with the said group of spotters wink

Fab! Thanks Paul biggrin

I do check mobile.de from time to time but 98% of European dealers do not give the car's vin number. I wish the Europeans were made to follow suit as in the US where it's mandatory!

Anyways, I owe you one! The Register now has 558 unique V12V entries.

dxbtiger - did you get the number today?

Mako V12V - anyone come up with this number yet? I'll be boarding my flight to Dubai in a couple of hours so if you haven't got the number yet let me know and I will gladly try to get it tomorrow. Any other spec details you want?

Hi Pete. I haven't received any info on the car yet. My Register collates most of the info off the advert but obviously i need the vin to populate the register. So, no i only need the vin.

If you want to PM me your mobile number I'll text you later if I do/do not receive the info from dxbtiger.

Cheers - Phil

Phil - PM system not working (or at least not from where I am). Well I'm now in Dubai so unless you let me know you've got the number shortly I'm off to the dealership to look at some lovely cars, one in particular.

Sorry Pete, just find that quite funny.
You fly all the way to Dubai to find the shops shut :-)


Anyway glad your flight was ok with all that's just been going on
