In the market to buy a Vantage Roadster 4.7 Sports pack

[Wozza]

Hi everyone,

I'm in the market for a Vantage Roadster 4.7.

Preferably black or silver though must have sports pack and black leather. Higher mileage doesn't scare me off though impeccable service history is essential.

I've viewed 3 cars so far and have been quite surprised at the poor condition of two of them - tatty seats, scuffed sill plates, oxidising(?) wheels, etc. One car was perfect other than not having the sports pack.

Budget is in the £50k's and the money is ready to go. If you are thinking of selling your car over the winter do please let me know!

Cheers



Marc

That'll be the bit the causes you a problem
Majority of early 4.7's were ASM1 as it coincided with it release
Good time to buy a roadster as the prices are dropping and your budget should get you a good one

Quick check and McGurks have one that you might be able to twist their arm on

Or these 3 in the dealer network, the N400 looks nice!

Thanks Mikey.

The N400 does look superb but I've decided my budget can bag a 4.7...

The McGurk car looks a little over priced to me but I hadn't spotted that Cheltenham car before so will give them a call - thanks!

Do you know about, or want the Premium Audio?

TBH I've had it in both my roadsters and hardly ever used it in over 25k miles, roof down the exhaust sound is too addictive

Yeah I like my audio but in the Aston it won't be a deal breaker? Must have upgraded lights and heated seats as I like going out at night when the roads are quieter!

Deal done!

Deposit placed on a 4.7 manual sport pack. Many thanks to Stuart at HWM for getting in touch and doing the deal.

Collection pencilled in for the 15th...

Cheers Marc
