I also have a non AMR car but with the AMR performance kit ( well I will have by next week)
If we’re not invited to the AMR meets , maybe we should set up our own :-)

I also have non AMR with the kit. Maybe these will be much rarer and more desirable.....!

Thanks Ian for updating mine - wonder where Madcal is on the build schedule? Still no date on my factory visit but surely got to be Tuesday !

My car landed at Wilmslow a couple of hours ago......so very excited !

Unfortunately I don't take delivery for almost 3 weeks, on 24th March, as we have had to reschedule detailer & PPF plus there are a few parts to fit by Wilmslow first, but at least I have an end date in site and I'll go to view it over the next day or so. Only taken 25 months !!! Good things do indeed come to those who wait !

You sure it’s only 25 months ? Been a great journey though ! Enjoy your car - think of me still waiting

Yes, but Graham just think what it will be like to own the last of the current Vantage ever built even if it is 2019 when you get delivery. Mine will have about 5k miles on the clock by then

Congratulations Jonby. I am at the factory tomorrow to sees ours in build. Been a bit of a delay but getting there now. I won’t add the phrase!!!!!

A few pictures of my Ultramarine V12 I have to say that it is exceeding my expectations. Lots of big step forwards over my carbon V12V

It looks black until the sun hits a panel then the amount of blue that is evident is amazing.

Looks brilliant. That third picture really does show what a fantastic colour ultramarine is.

Congratulations

Great colour - saw a Roadster at Aston Nottingham and that looked amazing - black on one side and blue on the other where the light hit it .

Are they alcantara seats? And if so, how?!

Can only assume it’s a letter betwixt P and R?!

IIRC on AMR spec - Coupes had Alcantara seat inserts and Roadsters all leather seats .

gorgeous ! It really is a great colour

It's a coupe though, so alcantara was standard for AMR :-)

Am almost committed to purchasing a V8 Roadster AMR (Halo Pack) and I read this whole thread for background information but something seems to have happened on March 11 as the thread abruptly stopped?!

Also V8s disappeared from the owners list... or did so few sell it was deemed not worth it?

Serious question. Are there still lots of V8 AMRs sitting at dealers waiting to be sold?

If I buy will depreciation be horrendous given it seems they are being sold at a discount?

Should I purchase an AMG GT instead?

Tin hat on...
