V8S Roadster SP10 - Manual

[SFO]

Does any one know one for sale?

This was the MY13 special edition Vantage S with the ceramic grey paint but £4000 cheaper than standard V8S.

Also, what does "Luxe Pack" at around £2500 include?

Luxe Pack one of those Aston 'secrets'?

It is:

Premium Audio

Heated Seats

Memory Seats

Bright Finish Front Grille

Magnum Silver Bonnet & Side Strake Meshes

Nope, but am also keeping a keen eye out for one

I think this is my ultimate Vantage, V12VR aside.

If you do find one make sure that it is not fitted with comfort suspension because it is dire.

I think you save £480 when buying new provided that you did actually want all the options. So no, not really.

I would email around the dealers to see if they have an SP10 or manual V8S loitering around within the dealer pre-specified stock list. As Rob shrewdly points out the SP10 Coupe comes with "comfort suspension" as standard, but ironically the Roadster has sports suspension, which better suits its sporting brief. The Luxe pack was a new Aston spec invention for the 13MY! Best of luck with the search Ceramic Grey looks fabulous

Works have a SP10 manual but coupe but sports suspension. I think dire is a bit harsh as regards the ordinary suspension though - on our rubbish roads sports would be hard going - be nice to have switchable though.
