Had enjoyed the 2011 V12V for 3 years and had been recently looking for its replacement. Previously posted about a 458, 599 or a Bentley Speed.

Local AM dealer has a 2014 Vanquish that has sat for nearly a year and offered it to me at a large reduction. I went in to take a look and give it a drive. A stunning car, inside and out. However, something about the gearing made the car feel a bit flat in certain situations. Worse, it had a massive squeak coming from the dash.

However, they also had a beautiful carbon black DB9. Took it for a drive as well and thought it was great. Had not even been considering a DB9, but am happy to be staying with AM for a few more years.

Picked it up Saturday on a bright, warm day (after 4 days of rain). A few pics.

No, not just you. DBS is better, but not driven a Vanq 2.2 yet though - which is meant to be much improved mainly due to the gear box.
