It says POA in the advert text.

It's says £9,999,999 on the add I see in that link.

In my opinion it's not worth anywhere near that. However I'm in no position to buy it and it's ultimately worth whatever anyone will pay for it.

That’s not the price....It’s what dealers sometimes put when they mean POA as some for sale sites will not allow POA in the main headline...You have to put a price.........Will not be cheap though as must be one the rarest Vantages out there. Personally I think the standard V12S or GT12 looks better.

D'oh! My bad.....

Would be interesting to see what it sells for eventually. But I'm not convinced the market is in a great place for this sort of stuff at the minute, prices of rare and classic stuff seems to be softening somewhat, although there are some exceptions.

That's a right old mish mash of design elements and styling cues. Odd looking thing. Nice satchel behind the seats though.

I would have a GT12 over this any day!

[EVR]

I like it.

Specification in advert is interesting,112 mph flat out and 0-62 in 11.2 seconds.
Does over 40 miles to the gallon though so not all bad !

At the risk of sounding like my wife - i do like the colour

Your post made me have another look at the advert.

The marketing detail is pathetic. Not only does the misleading price put people off immediately (I did not know about it being coded language for POA), but a turbocharger is unusual for this model. Perhaps the poor performance figures are the result of this car having 5 seats! -

HWM are the oldest and a very experienced AM dealer, so I am sure they will soon correct all the advertisement description errors.

^This

Lots of random design features copied from other cars that are a mish mash and not cohesive as a whole. Ridiculous pricing only as AM trying to recoup money for a silly styling exercise because of an anonymous rich customer.

Zagato do the specials far better, and they have heritage and history, with proper kudos and provenance.

Hardly anonymous. He posted the entire journey on here!!!

Even if its 'only' £1m, you'd have thought they could have cleaned it properly

Wow, said with real authority. Except nothing in your post is remotely accurate

What exactly is it that you think 'Zagato do' in relation to the specials ?

[Buster73]

I can remember when I first saw a picture, thought I’d have one, never got round to ringing the dealer, just as well when I saw the rrp , I’d have been seriously embarrassed.

Terrible advert.

Owner is a lovely chap, quite surprised to see this for sale.

[Beefmeister]

Are people really looking at that ad and thinking it's genuinely up for £9,999,999?

Do you struggle to put your shoes on the correct feet in the morning?

I'd have it if it wasn't for the fact that I don't enjoy driving lhd cars as much as rhd.
Pity
