Just noticed this photo on Slash's twitter page:

Seems he's traded his V12 Vantage for a new Vanquish. Not keen on the all-black look myself, but I can see why he goes for that colour scheme... hehe

And a proper Vanquish before that I believe.

Ah yes, so he was. I remember him being on but not the specifics, I generally go vegetative during the SIARPC segment...

all the switches indicator stalks etc ,I remember thinking what an incredible looking machine they were and then being in position to buy one,I tried to test drive I got in it and I got so deflated with the interior I stepped out without driving it.Definitely tons of ford bits in it,I was looking after a fleet at the time full of fords.
TBH its still an issue for me with them using all the volvo bits in the dbs,for the money they charge it should be bespoke,alas they are not alone,only ferrari seem to recognize you can't put bits from 20k cars into 200k cars.
