Because someone with "individual" taste decided to try and make a race replica from a standard Vantage, trying to use it as an advertisement to promote their product.

Whilst I also find it not to my taste, some may say it is not that far off the GT12 in looks although the colour scheme is a bit pants.

One of only two built, they proudly say. That might mean something, if they were actually built by Aston Martin.
Perhaps it was only two, because they couldn't sell any more.

Let's see, a gawdy 9 year old 4.3 Vantage, 40,000 miles,
or for exactly the same money,
a 2 year old 4.7 Vantage, 15,000 miles.

No contest.

Some "geezer" might like it, but at that price? Someone has an over inflated opinion of their work.

The base colour is quite nice but it's a shame all the other crap ruins what is probably quite a good looking car underneath.

Well its showing as sold now, so either there was another person with the same taste as the builders, or they have seen this thread and cancelled the sale.

Dont knock it, i noticed it has one of those "tip tronic" gearboxes and the "exhaust actuators" are switchable so makes it more powerful.

May fly back to UK to have a look at that..................................................
