(he rushes off to the garage with a bottle of tippex)Much less than £3,000 if you happen to be in Australia.
At this price, I expect there will be lower cost UK offerings soon, if this becomes a fashion again (remember the white wall tyre era).
I am happy with my existing low-sheen black side walls.
Hopefully shows care and attention to detail, without any 'shouty'.

The reason those tyres look so good on the grey Vantage is because it has black wheels, which are completely lost in the wheelarch. The yellow line gives the impression of the wheel being larger than it is, tricking the eye.
It's one of the reasons I SODDING HATE BLACK WHEELS
Nah black wheels work really well on light coloured paintwork, not so much on dark hues. It's one of the reasons I SODDING HATE BLACK WHEELS
All my opinion of course

Anthracite is the way on (some) light coloured cars, dark enough to contrast but bright enough to catch the light so you don’t lose the shape. All my opinion of course
Not for me on Vantage though, diamond turned suits it.
Some time ago, a contributor mentioned seeing a number of new Vantages on the Gaydon production line, all finished in Lime Essence.
The media launch in Portugal has now been referred to.
Do you think those cars spotted at Gaydon, will be the test drive cars being photographed for magazines etc.
My own opinion (of little worth on this subject), is that the car certainly does look better in particular colours, but hardly anyone here has praised the Lime Essence look.

Lights look fine in that video. I guess some colours and/or angles just don't show it at its best (like most cars).Can't wait for the videos.

a couple of weeks back there was an AM.com media sign page entitled Lime Essance Track V8 Vantage - Portimao (googled aston vantage launch portimao), think page has expired so it's all in embargo I think. So I assume we'll see them shortly.
