Greetings. This is my first post on PistonHeads. I have just taken delivery of a beautiful V12 Vantage in Quantum silver from Broughtons pleased as punch with it - it is a lovely car. I went up in my 4.7 Roadster to test drive a 2010 V12. My wife fell in love with this one - they just took delivery from the factory, so that was that! They offered me a great deal, now a proud owner. My daughter has put in a few links to see the photos.

How come that car has the Garmin nav? Mine's a 2011 car and doesn't have it. I'm jealous!

edit: just noticed you bought a new one!

Congratulations, by the way!

I was thinking that but then re-read - think Steve meant he intendeded looking at a 2010 but ended up with a new one ?

Love love love Quantum Silver - it was the colour of my first roadster and is one of my absolute favourite Aston colours of all time - photos rarely capture it as well as it looks in the flesh - congrats Steve

Welcome to the V12V club. Looks great but as you say no picture does Quantum justice.

Welcome and looks fantastic. Is it a 2013 year model as it looks like it has full piano black fascia?

Thanks for the comments just come back from a trip around Cheddar Gorge Fantastic just so well planted -like you all say cant stop smiling.The car was built in August this year and collected by Broughtons on the 12 September and registered to be used as their demonstrator bought on the 15th with 200 miles on the clock. Model year i believe is 12.25 or 12.5 not sure.

Welcome to the Dark side.

Kinda puts it into perspective how piss-poor the iPhone 5 really is when one measures relative "Cool"ness?

Hummm let me see....V12V or an iPhone?
