I was very fortunate to be at the afternoon tea of the centenary event yesterday, where Dr Bez gave a speech.

As I was leaving, he was outside signing a copy of his book for someone, so I hung around for a couple of mins and asked him to sign my programme for me and had a little chat.

I mentioned I had recently purchase a V12V and asked him "so have you got any plans/designs for a future Vantage replacement any time soon?" - he responded along the lines of "well, we are always working & designing new things, but at present nothing for tomorrow". (I am not quoting him exactly).

Made me think that maybe a new Vantage is still a little while away, but who knows, tomorrow is only 24 hours away, maybe it's the day after!

Good try, stimshady.

The job description for chief executives includes keeping company secrets.

Remember Mr. Ratner?

Why would he ever want to say "yes" then kill his meagre sales projections going forward until the new model was ready?
