Congratulations on your choice of car.
You need to change you nickname. You won't be Grumpy now.

The Vantage is a magnificent design. Hard to believe that it was unveiled 12 years ago, and is still regarded as beautiful. Not an easy job to design a better looking replacement, that has to increases sales.

Enjoy your new car. My job today is Vantage cleaning.

I dont think they need to redesign the outside too much. Inside dash, sportshift and the sat nav is another matter.

Only thing I miss from my other cars at the moment is the ability to play MP3s from somewhere - my TT (which is also 2007) has a 6 disc in dash changer like the Vantage, but that accepts MP3 discs so I can fit more than enough music in there for me.

Once you've pulled Fuse 22 you won't need any music!

Mine's a 2007 too. A fine vintage.

Many congratulations on your beautiful purchase. Several options available to access more music. The general recommendation is to contact James at Trackaphone: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=109...
Enjoy your new car biggrinbiggrin

Tune2Air is what you want.

Congratulations on the purchase!

Great buy and colour the grin will never leave whilst you own.
Look forward to seeing you and car on 5th Dec fuse 22 removal will make a difference I waited 6 weeks and well worth the wait. My neighbours love their 6am alarm clock during the week!

Only issue I've had so far is there's an intermittent rattle on rough roads between 30-50mph - sounds like its coming from the passenger side near the windscreen - hopefully someone can shed some light on common rattles on the 5th smile

Passenger side dash rattle.

Before my ownership, there is a service record of the same fault.
The cause was something to do with the glove box. New magnets.

Obviously, I expect there could be many reasons for rattles.
