AM Nottingham V12V - just sold?

[Mako V12V]

Last week there was a Hammerhead Silver V12V for sale at Nottingham with 17400m. This has now been removed from AM used car site.

Has anyone on here bought this? Please can you get in touch with me?!

Cheers
Phil

There is a sudden burst on for these right now even some advertised cars have been sold.

although these things tend to be subject to trends over a period of time, there often does seem to be a very short space of time when there is a significant firming/ price jump - I wonder if we are about to see one with V12V ?

[IanV12VR]

I was watching the numbers reduce of the V12VR on the official site and when the last roadster went the Coupes came up by default. Originally 12 showing and now down to 8 over a couple of weeks and it sounds like that might drop further in the short term.

Can't be too long before dealers adjust their pricing upwards! Wonder if this will have a rub on effect on the SS cars?

Being manual, I think this will look cheap in 12 months time

Actually I hadn't realised - just looked to see 3 V12VS coupes available with manual transmission thru official dealers, all priced at 116ish k. Hadn't realised they could be bought at what to me, seems very cheap ?

interesting to go for all the internal carbon, but not on the bonnet.

And going for the wrong seats

after your edit, I'll add they've all got the wrong seats.

Had a proper look.

4 cars.

cheapest looks like the ex Aston car that Chris Harris etc had. Good story for some, steer clear for others, no lightweights

White and China grey with graphics - marmite colours and no lightweights.

Most expensive, has lightweights, but the red carbon isn't for everyone. Mileage is actually lower, under 1000, AM Bristol - I already told you this, keep up

[ajr550]

Get a GT8.Plenty of those coming up.
Judging by RM sale last night the bubble is deflating.

[vpr]

Managed to scoop a Manual today which had just come into stock at my local

2013 but no lightweights but so bored with trying to find my perfect car I've now put myself out of my misery
I would love to buy seats for it but guessing they'll be more than the car

[TVR4500cc]

Congratulations VPR - I did the same when buying my V12VS, she has everything I wanted appart from lightweight seats.

I've actually found the sports seats to be good, not saying lightweights wouldn't be better, but what you've not experienced you don't mis out on, hope you enjoy yours!

Pics?? :-)

I'm not in the market - I wish I was (!) - but there's a "cheap" V12V at AM Leeds that's been for sale for ages. Manual, Lightning/Obsidian with lightweights. I'd prefer Titanium to Lightning, but otherwise it's basically my ideal car.

Has it got a story ? Or has it just got too many miles for discerning buyers ?

I'm puzzled by this too. Perhaps it's mileage. Silly really. It's nothing in the grand scheme of things - and they look good. Perhaps on closer inspection the condition isn't so great - but if you're prepared to spend a bob or two to tart it up - its a fantastic buy.

I have seen the Leeds car and it was on my list of potentials. It's being sold on behalf of the customer by AM Leeds. I don't believe there are any stories but overall condition was not to the standard of others available. As a result others have passed through the dealer and been snapped up as they have become available yet this one is still around. Worth a chat with Max but I get the impression the owner may not be allowing them to drop the price or invest in correcting the issues.

Then he/she is naive!!!

[IanV12VR]

Just been on the official site and amazed to see Leeds have two Lightening Silver cars both with 23/24k miles but one 2009 and the other 2010. Price £1k differently - Quite a coincidence - didn't think these cars were so common
