Yes, but...no, not the Nottingham one. There wouldn't be any harm in asking when it's happening (there, not here...it's secret squirrel o'clock here).

The respective dealership launch parties aren't necessarily the same day as the official launch - so it's no surprise there's differing dates floating around. Still, not long to go.

In the past, the dealer launch events have often been on various dates, because a small number of completed cars tour the dealerships.

A new teaser that was posted by Autocar shows the headlights of the road car and more interestingly the rear of what seems to be the GTE car from the rear that has a huge rear wing and race car side mirrors. (I apologize for the incorrect usage of motorsport terminology as I'm not that knowledgeable in terms of racing).

Also a couple of pictures by a Motor1.com reader showing the car with less camo, not sure if it's been posted here before. The diffusor is so aggressive but the exhaust seems to be too small?

Most modern exhaust 'pipes' that you see are just trim pieces, it's likely the Vantage has them and this just shows the unfinished pipe.

Has a bit of AMG GT-R rear-end look to it...

So come on, now that we know when it's coming out of the starting blocks, can anyone on here actually divulge what the base price is ?

At a DB11 test last week I was told starting at around £120k.

That's what I've heard too, except that price is for the 'Launch Edition' cars which, like the DB11 are very highly specced.

I have a strong feeling in my waters that the launch cars will be more like £140k plus. Expect lots of options spend to be needed to get into something worth having - I'm told 'poverty spec' cars will be at a level of trim lower than we have come to expect even for the old V8V's..

Today I got an invite to the dealership reveal being held in Winchester. However the event isn't until the 4th of December which seems a little "secondhand news".

That's their turn to get the "show" car.
