Well tomorrow is the day, picking up the Vantage that no one else seemed to want...and I am dead excited!

Thought I'd try and post up a few more pictures that the Top555 boys took for me, and with my V12 plate on...

Wow, looks amazing in those shots. Good for you. I bet you got a cracking deal.

Prepare to be be one of the happiest men on planet earth. The V12V was every inch as amazing as I was hoping.

To think you saved a bundle over a new V8S can only put an even bigger smile on your face.

Enjoy!

I agree, some colours just don't seem to suit being photographed - although maybe a professional would disagree, but certainly the pictures above are far more realistic than the ones used to advertise the car, and thanks, the colour is really lovely in real life!

The more I think about the deal the better it becomes, I near enough got a half price V12V that is a year and a half old! Bonkers biggrin

Massive welcome to the V12V club. It looks stunning and I guarantee the overall experience won't dissapoint. After 14months I still bear a remarkable resemblance to a Cheshire cat every time I get behind the wheel.

There are some on the dealer advert at the top of the page but I don't think they do it justice so I will take some tomorrow when I pick the car up and post them. smile

Cayman-black; just wanted to say thanks one more time for starting the thread; if you hadn't asked the original question and i hadn't been lurking on the AM forum then I would not have had this opportunity.

By the way, the deal got concluded after 4 days of almost non-stop negotiation with Charles at Top555 who was in New York at the time (he won't mind me saying that becasue it's on their Twitter page)we finally agreed the deal on New Years Eve, so what a great end to 2011 and start to 2012. Looking forward to tomorrow like a school kid looking forward to Christmas day!! cloud9

Welcome to the V12V pack! I've had mine for 18 months, and 7,600 miles down it just gets better and better!!
Congratulations, you got a great car for a fab price.

Congratulations. You will be very pleased with the purchase. Mine is now just over 2 years old having done 10k and it is still as exiting to take it for a drive than it was back in November 2010 when i took delivery. Why do people sell these cars at knock down trade in values - they are keepers.

Because they get bored or can't afford the re-payments.

Congratulations! Now just restore the bonnet vents to the original carbon fiber finish and the car will be perfect!

£800 each for the large vents and £600 each for the small ones. Unless the paint can be removed without damaging the lacquer on the carbon fibre.

Not cheap!
