The Mrs wasn’t happy at me selling it either, not often a car sale elicits a response from her!
Yes the car was telling you not to sell !!
I have the same trouble with an e46 m3 - I am having to spend money to get bits sorted ready to sell that I might as well keep it ....

Looks like the Grange car has been reserved again
How do you know this Kev? I went on their site and it is still for sale? They have a gorgeous Blue DBS also.

Leverage the mortgage!

I bought my v12v for £65.3k in Feb 2020 and the HWM is pretty much the same owners, miles (unsure if that one carbon seats) at £73k a year later.

I think it was fate telling me not to sell, however I have cancelled the sale of mine. BR continue to investigate the misfire. I will revisit next year when hopefully we have moved to a house with a bigger garage, as finding a replacement car was limiting me to something 4.6 m in length!

Good news that you are keeping it corner. Keep us informed of what the problem is, please.
Hello Sir, yes - will keep you updated.

The only thing I did differently, and for the first time, was start using fuel cutoff procedure holding down the accelerator and clutch. BR advise issue can be felt/heard up to 2k but not flagging on AMDS.

Typical..

If you look at the photo on the Grange website it had 'Reserved' on the top left hand corner

shows reserved when I look - maybe your browser is displaying a cached version of the ad?

I think I may be able to shed some light

On the Grange website the car is shown as "Reserved". (Grange .co.uk)



But on the Aston Martin "Pre-owned" website it is not. (Preowned.astonmartin.com)

Grange Edinburgh now has a white 2009 car with 13k miles for £77,950. Looks like values are still slowly creeping up

Morning Frost as well one of my favorite colours.

I think these V12Vs are like house sales at the moment, on fire.laugh

The price spread on mileage differences is quite large. Year seems to make little difference

Going just on Autotrader the spread is £63k at 38k miles up to £87k at 4.5k miles. The orange car is still a little niche for most tastes at £90k and 24k miles. Does lightweight seats or B&O add any value or even make the car more desirable anymore?

The age difference between cars becomes less important as the cars become older. When comparing V12 Vantages the fact one is a 2009 and one is 2010 is negligible compared with other factors such as mileage and service history.

As for lightweight seats or B&O I don’t know how they influence prices. The lightweight seats were a must have for me as I think they suit the aggressive nature of the car. The B&O I didn’t worry about at all. All the reports from owners before I bought mine said that the premium stereo was excellent and the music system in a V12 Vantage is hardly a core consideration. Some owners even claim never to turn their’s on.

I love the lightweights and having had two other Aston’s without them they are my preference.

I don’t have the B&O in this car but had it in the Rapide S. I think it’s better but since I had the secondary cats removed it would be a waste of amplifiers and speakers to have it in this!

Bought my 11 plate car on 22k last March for just shy of £60k from slades - feel like I got a really good deal. Not that i bought it thinking about the money, one of the best cars I've ever bought

I think that was a great deal. Keep it 3 years and if you sell you will likely not lose a penny.
