Always loved the look of the vanquish, and after my db7 and v8v adventures back in the early/mid 2000s I've decided it's about time to jump back in so I've just bagged this absolutely glorious carbon black edition vanquish from AM Newcastle. I'll never be able to let the 430 go so the Jag I pace has had to be the victim here. Hopefully should have it by the weekend! not the best photo but the walk round video after prep they sent me shows the car to be flawless!

Vanquish looks really nice had a carbon black Vanquish Volante myself and still miss it.

Lovely and I'm sure you will be very happy. Newcastle are one of the 'better' dealers out there and have a good reputation so should look after you.

Is it a 6 speed ir 8 speed? The 8 is surprisingly good on fuel (can't comment on the 6) so shouldn't hurt you too much.

Enjoy !

Congratulations, enjoy the moment. Looks lovely.
Alongside the Italian v8 it's a fantastic garage.

@Longy00000 yes mate it's the 8 speed so that's comforting to know on fuel economy!

I should pop down. Grab a free coffee off Joanne and throw confetti over you as you drive off into the sunset from the Silverlink smile
