Celebrating the Vantage

[Wayne95]

With the Vantage win at Le mans today it set me thinking about how AM are planning to celebrate the end of Vantage production before moving on.

It would be great to have an event at Gaydon with as many Vantage there as possible to give it a send off. There has been some negative comments on here about AM marketing and press team, ( re AMR ) but I would hope they are thinking of marking the occasion in a big way.

Anybody aware of anything, or should we push the idea somehow - those much better connected than myself.....

Great idea

Simplest thing is to tweet Andy Palmer with the suggestion. I'd be amazed if something couldn't be organised - a gathering of Vantages at Gaydon would make most sense (albeit the car park isn't huge)

What a great idea.

AML have been happy to host a PH Sunday Service at Gaydon, so a meeting of existing customers hopefully should be possible.

We are fans of the marque, and also potential customers of the next Vantage.
If the timing of such an event followed the launch, then there could be a celebration of the present model, combined with a viewing of the successor. Who knows, extra orders perhaps.

Andy Palmer via Twitter is the way to go. He is a big fan of social media and he reads his tweets and direct messages himself.

Sent him a tweet I think - not a greater twitter user myself.

Perhaps he reads PH as well.

The factory did host a "Vantage Homecoming" event in 2010, I went to it as I had an early 2006 Vantage. It was great, a day out , factory tour, nice ltd edition print by Marek and test drives of the new V8 and V12 Vantages.

Something along those lines would be great, but im not sure just how practical it is to host for hundreds of owners versus the tens of us that went over a few days.....

Perhaps after production had finished or at least post AMR cars ? Be great if there could be a timeline of cars start to finish ?
