Very good Pete.

Expect a call from Ken Block. He might want your help at the Goodwood FoS next year.
He may ask if you can do power turns, whilst standing on the door sill.

Yes, just a lowly V8 but definitely a nice one as Steve says. BR exhaust, clutch, flywheel and more and I love it smile

Wow, not many gone down the V12 to V8 route, like, did anybody? Very different dynamics, huh, and so subtle after Yellow Tang. I really like the Tang.

Indeed, though the Tang was a keeper. But onwards and enjoy!

Very interested to hear how this works out. I certainly won't be swapping my V12 for that, but i'm cautiously conjuring up some man maths to potentially add a Vantage Mk2 to the stable next year if possible.

There's a Cosmos Orange one sitting in Works at the moment, black pack, full alcantara interior...looks bloody good.

I digress anyway.......that Vantage looks cracking. Is that White Stone or Stratus White ?

It is White Stone. The picture doesn’t really do it justice. It was an offer I couldn’t refuse, so I didn’t. I think that is a 7 on your scale of likability. All good so far, really loving it.

Phil , your replacement car looks great.
I’ve just done something similar but couldn’t be bothered to post as have heard enough negative comments and am bored of it.
You’ve spurred me on though.
The new car feels so modern in comparison.
Fabulous to drive as a daily and very ( very ) quick.
My deal was also a no brainer.
Photo to follow.

Ryan , no the Elwood Blue one - Special colour after the N420 race car I believe.
Tbh it’s too bright for a daily ( great as a Sunday car ) so I’m speccing a factory car for March.
All part of the deal as they say.
Blame Barista.
