With heavy heart, due to financial circumstances I had to part with my 2007 V8 Vantage a few weeks ago after 7 years ownership.

I thoroughly enjoyed the ownership experience and although I only covered 14,000 km (20,000km total when sold) every single one was used for enjoyment purposes (Alps drives, weekends away or just collecting my daughter) having 100% reliability in that time.

Even when not driving, further hours were spent staring at that beautiful shape....it really is an object of desire.

Ultimately the car went to a collector who decided to return it back to orginal spec (shame but not everyone likes what you create).

Here are some links to some threads:

Visual mods

It's a wrap

I have also have various items (CL5+ Brake Pads, 200 cell cats, 12mm wheel spacers, outdoor and indoor covers and heal/toe accelerator pedal) in the Classifieds

Sorry to hear it, hopefully things will turn around and you'll be able to jump back in.

Did you unwrap it for the sale out of interest?

Cheers guys, let's hope sometime in the future I'll be back.

To answer the question about the wrap, It stayed on the car and was removed after purchase.
