Hi All,

looking to buy a new AM Vantage coupe. Test drove one last Friday. Fantastic. I would welcome advice on the following spec I am considering.

Tungsten / black / silver stitching
Bright grille
Xenons
Front parking sensors
700 W system
Auto dimming rear view
heated seats
Sat nav really don't need it but keep being told it is vital for resale.

I am unsure about
cruise control
type of wheels


Thanks for any advice

Josh

Thanks. Snap on the 38 thing. I have heated seats at the moment in my Z4 Coupe and wouldn't want to be without them.

re memory seats I am going to be the only driver so not sure I need them

Other half won't drive the BMW so highly unlikely to want to drive the Aston.

Best Regards

Josh

thanks all,

very useful advice. The sat nav is soemthing that keeps geting pushed to me. I really have no need for it but the dealers I have visited are adament that it is needed for resale value.

Best Regards

thanks all

re sat nav so what is the impact on resale value say after 3 years if I dont spec the sat nav?

possible stupid question so apologies in advance. I have a tom tom and use it may be 3 times per year hence my reluctance to splash out of fixed sat nav which no doubt will be obsolete in 3 years.

best regards

josh

Josh If you dont mind me asking what sort of deal on a fac order are they offering you ? Im hopeful that if I go self spec (roadster) I can secure mid 80`s with sat, sportpack wheels and a few smaller extras.

I have no px and arranged finance with lombard direct (who only offer very small balloons at present due to the uncertainty)
I would be surprised if you got much/any discount on a self spec new order.
hi about 10K
