Few weeks ago I sold my V8 Vantage, and I still have a few V8 Vantage antenna's available, that are much shorter than the long dog tail provided (only for cars before MY08, after there is no antenna at all)

See here a pic as example:



Please send me a PM if interested.

Best regards,

AWV12 formerly known as AWV8 :-)

We've only got the standard length V8V so I guess it won't fit smile

On a more serious note. Do they work any better (or worse) than the longer antenna.
In my area, it works the same (not better, not worse) as the original, the only reason for me to use it, is the better looks, see:



The V8V is in design almost perfect I think, there were only 3 minor points imho, one was the antenna (solved), the other one the lack of ipod/usb connection (also solved, I got the decent factory upgrade in my MY07 V8V) and lastly the ugly licence plate holder on the front (also solved by mounting a small, not-completely-legal one, and removing the holder) :-)

I didn't know that such a thing existed and as one of the unlucky ones I am still interested in getting one. If anyone can point me in the direction of where i might purchase one i would be very grateful.
Thanks in advance.
Don;t know if they are still available, if so, and demand is great enough, we can organize a group buy. Keep you posted!

Look great but too expensive for me. Don't want to take anything away from the OP but you can get them on ebay.com for a tenth of the price....
It seems not the same type. Mine have some electronic inside that keeps a strong signal, despite the short size, but I will look up where I bought mine several years ago, they where much more expensive for sure.

Thx, looks good and similar too the ones I had (but I am out of stock for a while now) and better priced than my source back then.

Bit of a resurrection but is this still a good option for a shorter antenna for my Vantage?
Yes, why not?

But only fits MY08 and before (later there was no roof antenna any more).
