Thanks very much. As a photographer you'll know what I mean when I say some colours work well in photos (like my previous Volcano Red Aston), others don't show so well, and I'd say Yellow Tang is the latter. But to me it looks great in the flesh in sunlight.
Yes it's true, some colors just don't work the reflected light so well. I tend to find the mid- tones give the most curves and contrast, the light and dark tones not so much. Volcano is a great example for sure. Morning Frost is another like Tang which really works but doesn't give up many curvaceous secrets!

Great parking spot and car looks very nice. Not personally a fan of illegally spaced plates though, do you ever get pulled over? Theres loads about so I guess not?

Polished out some quasi non existent scratches, kept staring at it and turned on the Premium Audio System for the first time - wow!

The very first song of course had to be the one: Elton John - Made in England smile

I recalled reading that Surrey and London have amongst the highest rate of prosecutions for illegally space number plates, which put me off doing so with mine, but I can't find the web page to support that now. What I have copied below is from the Sun newspaper's web site (so who knows how factual it is!) giving number of prosecutions in various areas across the UK:-

Metropolitan (Greater London area)- 3,058
North Wales- 1,381
Norfolk- 1,175
Thames Valley- 855
Hertfordshire- 838
Greater Manchester- 754
Hampshire- 735
Cheshire- 733
Suffolk- 682
Avon and Somerset- 629

Went for a twilight blast in my corner of Suffolk, saw a decent sky asking for a few pictures with my V8V.

Yesterday (Friday) took the V12V S out and got a few pics in the sun. Still gives me a big smile every time I drive it! First pic I've uploaded on here, so forgive me if it doesn't work first time...
Missed the chance to swap to a Tang Vantage earlier this year, looks stunning!

Had to deliver a few (used) computer screens to a new site so managed to squeeze them in the boot. Arrived undamaged too.

Last night at AM Bristol, Jon from Modball Rally collected his new Vantage, and StG's Behind The Glass was filming for a podcast. A great selection of new Vantages out front - great event, nice people. Jon's car's well specced; Hyper Red, alcantara interior. Sounded lovely and looked superb.

Does anyone know or have any suggestions for what the green is on the vantage in the pic above? Looks fantastic! From a quick comparison on the configurator - looks like it might be sea storm.
