Was thinking of changing my V8roadster, for a new vantage V12 Roadster, anyone got any info on current deals? In the past there have been some interesting ( unpublished) offers, making it very attractive to buy...any info greatly appreciated
Haven't heard of any discounts for the V12VR at all

They've all been made and sold. Will now only be second hand ones, but I suspect they will be few and far between due to the small numbers made in right hand drive.
That's surprising if they sold all 100!!!!! Maybe they should make it a production car, instead of a small run...KarlFranz said:
Eeck! and there would go the value for all of those who paid for a limited edition vehicle.
100 vehicles World Wide......the pricing is not Zagato level, neither is the customisation, it's a roadster version of the standard ( if a V12 Vantage can be called standard!) so it's hardly much of a differentiator. Plus all other variants have a roadster!!! Share the beauty I say, make a few more!!!!v8woollie said:

No they haven't.I think you may have well and truly missed the boat Glendower
I agree it was silly not to make it a production model of 1000+... a lot of V12V owners may have traded up if the costs to trade were fairer, but being limited to 100, the pricing was rigid and there were supposedly no dealer cars (and by dealer cars, I mean Misery grey with Suicide black).

No they haven't.Stratstone had a fully loaded ceramic grey one available with a £5k offered discount. Grange Exeter had a fully loaded Flame Orange but that may have gone now. Think there may have been a Morning Frost White one somewhere else but that is about it. Wouldn't expect the dealers to be in a hurry to discount as the Roadster selling season is just around the corner.
I guess the question for you is would you want to pay list for a car that you hadn't specced? I am not sure I would as part of the 'pleasure' of paying full list was getting the car of my choice - and oh what a car.

Agree with that, as I am a Black with Black....(all my cars are.......must say something abou me......no comments please) so wouldn't be interested in someone else's specc....Stratstone had a fully loaded ceramic grey one available with a £5k offered discount.

It's a shame so few were made, will need to look out for a second hand one......or stuff a V12 engine in my 4.7 Roadster....

Doubt they will unless they homologate it for other markets (such as the US) which wouldn't help your situation. The cars are clearly marked as a limited edition of 101 and I got written confirmation from AM that they would not build more than 101 of this variant in the markets where it is currently homologated. It partly helped justify my 'man maths' for paying the real premium over the V12V 
That is not to say that if the build a V12 version of the next generation Vantage that there will not be a roadster version.

All the UK ones have been made and sold - AdamV8V even tried using Man Maths to buy one, but Stratstones couldn't source one.
I think dealers are holding on to them and not letting other dealers know they have them. They know they will sell them with minimal discounting and make good margin on them.Gassing Station | Aston Martin | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
