I’ll just leave this little nugget here....
I like that - trouble is - I don't live too far from this poor gentleman - although admittedly you wouldn't park this one outdoors...https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-gloucestersh...

@Liam - Is this to replace the V12V or an addition to the stable ?
It would replace it but I think that car is now gone, it’s not on their site this morning. They’ve got an 8 speed Carbon White in stock too which is equally tempting if a bit more expensive.I love the V12V but all the little niggles are a pain in the arse! Living 300 miles from a dealer doesn’t help, but first world problems etc etc...
Interesting. When you say “owner” do you mean dealer? (Only ask as they seem to have some tempting stuff from time to time and aren’t a million miles from me)
I showed this to Mrs LT earlier this week... this evening she commented this evening that I’d taken some bad news surprisingly well, I told her that I was pleased because I was wondering how to break the news to her that I’d bought another Aston (I haven’t, but a good opportunity to test the water!)
Apparently if I try harder than I did last time to sell my other yellow car (when a total failure to advertise it may have contributed to the decidedly limited number of inquiries!) then I’m all clear for another car. Quite fancy a Rapide S as the kids keep growing... but can’t help thinking that getting to yes was almost too easy...

LOL - I learnt a while ago that the yes to an Aston is actually just like a loaned yes
Eventually the 'loan' is called in.... more often than not in my experience it involves another hairy beast she wants me to allow her to have....
fortunately it always has four legs and i only get involved in capex not opex!

Yes , some of the dealer reviews speak volumes imho.I showed this to Mrs LT earlier this week... this evening she commented this evening that I’d taken some bad news surprisingly well, I told her that I was pleased because I was wondering how to break the news to her that I’d bought another Aston (I haven’t, but a good opportunity to test the water!)

Tell me about it..! I nearly spat my coffee when I saw what the innocent sounding “small” wagon for MrsLT’s beasts was going to cost. I didn’t expect that you could add a one (or two!) in front of the figure I was thinking... and to make it worse, you don’t even seem able to get them dual purposed as nag / track car transporters.Eventually the 'loan' is called in.... more often than not in my experience it involves another hairy beast she wants me to allow her to have....

Thanks Buster, I shall do a little reading should I ever be minded to drop by to that dealer.

I’m half interested in an early 6 speed Vanquish from a main dealer - the grey one in Edinburgh at £100k.
On a 24m PCP, the balloon is set at £80k, so 80% of the price. I don’t have a crystal ball but IMO I think the 6 speed Vanquishes have some altitude to lose yet before levelling off. Therefore again IMO, after depreciation and the dealer’s margin, I wouldn’t see much if any of my deposit back after 2 years.
Then you look at a ~£80k V12V, a car which hopefully has just about fully bottomed out, and the balloon on one of those is set at about 60% after 2 years. Theoretically you might get a large proportion of your deposit back.
What’s going on here with these strategies? Why are they pushing used Vanquishes with these deals which to the short-sighted are extremely tempting indeed? A quick look at HowManyLeft shows roughly equal numbers of each model produced.
I’m most likely missing something extremely obvious here, car finance has always been a mystery to me.
