Flame Orange

[cayman-black]

With the Madagascar car still for sale i wondered what the Astoneers veiw was on this colour?

[Barnezy]

Nice

[ADvantageV8]

Stunning is my vote

There was a Flame Orange V12VR for sale at Grange Exeter and took a little while to sell. In fact I think Mikey showed some interest in it first time round. Came back to them a year later and again took a while to sell but eventually went to someone who already had a Flame Orange DBS!!!

Looked great and saw the one in the picture up at Gaydon as it was a display car in the Atrium. Cannot believe there are many but think the colour will either be loved or hated.

Personally i do think its a better colour than the Madagascar orange.

I have a Fire Red Vantage and have to admit I was hesitant in buying it, was about to get a Lightning Silver one before it came along at AMW. But now living with it and walking into the garage each morning, I don't regret it. I saw the Madagascar Orange one at AMW and it's really good in the flesh.

I considered it the second time as well
I've got Jaffa the S2000 to help with my obsession
One thing I would say they are a bit like white and look best when they are clean an in the sun!

Fantastic colour! I'd have that in a heartbeat

If I was in the market for a V12 I'd have that pudding that's been sitting at works service at the drop of a hat. Just don't understand why it's sticking.

Easy. It's not selling because it is orange and a lot of people that buy Astons are concerned about resale value. I shudder to think what a dealer would offer for an orange £95K car come sale or trade in time. Bugger all I suspect.

Sad but true. I'd get resale grey and get it wrapped.

Nice!!!

Here are another couple of pics I took of a flame orange V12V (quite probably the same car) 2 years ago. It is stunning in the flesh...

[IanMorewood]

Brave colour choice but it's nice.

[V8V Pete]

Personally I prefer Madagascar but they're both stunning and either would do me very nicely thank you.

I thought you liked it Simon?

I love the Madagascar Orange car The colour would not stop me buying it but I can understand why it might stop the majority of potential buyers.

[vankypanky]

wouldnt be for me personally. i loved the one at works though

[cayman-black]

Adam is that a uk car? Where? The one i posted is a NL car from Kroymans, its a Carbon Edition.
