Been invited to see new Vantage at Duxford in January biggrin

Properly looking forward to it................ (Hope its not in that yellowy citrusy colour)
I look forward to hearing your feedback, especially when you see "the front" for the first time. It is VERY different to the press photos when you see it in real life.

I went in expecting to feel a little disappointed but was blown away by how great it looks.

Been told Nottingham Aston isn't going to bother with a 'fizz and nibbles' launch night but a car is going to be in the showroom for a few days during January so planning on getting a look then, even though I'm not a potential customer for about 10 years when depreciation has took its toll. rotate

And the yellow/green one looks outstanding, really awesome.

I just don't have the cojones to buy one in that colour

Will probably go to see the new Vantage with my son to Grange in Welwyn in January. I'm not expecting much but then I didn't like the front of the DB10 so that doesn't bode well. It will however make a nice convoy out together. biggrin

I have an invite, even though I bought one elsewhere I am tempted to come just to say "I told you so" when you see it and realise it looks great ;-)

Mu understanding is there is a launch in January at the dealership .

That was my original understanding, but called in the dealership on Saturday and was told they weren't bothering, thought it a bit odd, and may well have been politely telling me I'm not invited. hehe
But we're going to pop over and have a look on the 27th Dec, no fizz, but a nice coffee and a slice of cake instead. wink

Yes it does look more palatable from this angle, ie. when you don't see this awful front grille and rear diffuser so much.
... And you don't hear the exhaust farting.
I completely agree with what Speedraser said about the car! He may well be my hidden brother!
OK, I will shut up too now.

Does this car have the exterior carbon fibre pack or is it gloss black?

Gloss black.

But it is not a full car; just a model so don’t draw conclusions.....
