I thought that was one of those made-up prices to put it at the top of listings. Apparently not. rofl

The advert clearly states Price on Application so not even sure why the original article bothers mentioning "all the 9s"

It's disappointing that there was not even one single mention in this article of this car's namesake.

Not sure why the 90's Vantage is so forgotten; wasn't it the most powerful production car in the world in its day??

"... in a nod to Aston’s V600 Le Mans special edition from 1999."

Oops, missed that microscopic reference. Mea culpa.

The first owner's "daring specification" = questionable taste, was it Mr Mansory's car ?

V12 and a manual = sublime. Shame it's never to be repeated in this combo, let alone a V12 full stop.

But my all-time favourite Aston Martin is that V600 Le Mans someone just posted. What a brutish but elegant machine that is.
