Having seen photos of their DB7s posted by Gem_man and LBS on another thread, it might be nice to see other Bloxham cars are owned by PHers ....

Here is my current car for starters. Having had two V8V, we went for this as we wanted something different as our "Sunday" car. It's a 2001 Vantage Volante with GT suspension and brake upgrade by AMWS. Colour is Canne di Fucile, a Ferrari colour apparently.

What exhaust is that? My wife thinks the car is a little quiet compared to the two V8Vs we had!

This X piece connects to 2 small sports back boxes. Makes a fantastic noise and they have all the patterns etc stored on computer so they can make you a system from that, or bespoke if you need, speak to Simon or Paul, say Tim recommended them. smile
Do you find it "too noisy"/intrusive when cruising on the motorway or is it fine? Looks a lovely setup ...

It is loud when under load, sounds tremendous when "taking off". However when cruising it is fine with a nice background "hum" - not at all intrusive. I should say Paul had my car for over a week working on different set ups to get it just right and as you can see in the first photo the 2 sides of the pipe join up at the centre of the X and this helps prevent any booming when cruising.
I've just noticed you will be at CFS so I'll try to pop over and take a look (and hear it!)
