Fantastic noise - some serious exhausts on show !!

Burntout's beast stands out, as does John and Di's V12Vs with the contrasting louvres. And that red volante.....

Good shots too of Yeti posing about like a pimp smile

What red Volante? Only red convertible I could see was the V8VSR.

Great video though. Yeti your car sounds unbelievably loud!

Oh, and John, your poor car looks like it's desperate for a wash!

The pimp of Gaydon... well if the cap fits! I was 'organising', a woman with a clipboard told me so!

Brilliant video, really enjoyed that - it's got very good sound for a little camera! Thanks Shmee!

Yes, but yours looked more tungsten silver rather than the fantastic mako blue!

That was probably Di!!

Of course my car is filthy but Mako is a hard car to photograph - it changes colour based on the light and varies between a solid blue, shimmery silver and gold.

Yours is the 59 plate one with the black/anthracite alloys and carbon side strakes isn't it?

Pentland green is difficult to photograph too (especially with my non-existent photography skills and cheap little camera). Looks so good when it's sunny and it changes to a light sparkly green, just looks black in pictures frown

yes The only way I can tell the difference is by the reg plate.

BTW you are correct on the Roadster - don't know why but those 'hubs' behind the seat heads always look like extra seats to me smile

Mr Reichman claims they cause the eye to create a virtual roof laugh
They also have the explosive roll over hoops in them.

Shmee nice vid!
That Virage looks nice, prefer that to a DBS

What colour is the V12 Vantage reg no MX59OBK ?

Looks stunning.

Is it hammerhead?

Cheers

JohnG1, you're absolutely right - the car changes colour from front to back. Cleanish and the front and somewhat dirty at the back. I feel fully qualified to say that because mine was the second most dirty car after yours.

N.B. no comment about women.

first time I had looked properly at a Virage. Really good looking, some nice touches to the interior as well e.g. Chrome seat controls and a chrome surround to the seat control unit.

It's JohnG39's, and I believe it's "Quantum Silver" - beautiful car.

I will actually get it cleaned at some point. My plan is to get the winter wheels swapped back and then get it detailed. I just refuse to clean cars myself.
