V12 Vantage - gone but not forgotten

[Robbo66]

15 months, mostly good experience.

Couldn't quite justify upcoming costs of insurance, tyres and service combined with winter period.

Have been royally bent over on trade in...but that's life. Someone will have a cracker for circa £90k I would imagine.

What did you trade it in for ?

Will it come up for sale at a main stealers then ?

Looked at a nice V12 vantage at JCT in Leeds this afternoon however was blown away by a red Ferrari 599 612 BHP my ears are still sore after he started it in the showroom.

[Robbo66]

That's where it's going. Speak to Max.

[whoami]

Was it a straight sale back to them?

[Robbo66]

[andrew]

Outstanding Jock. I won't ask how.

Obviously didn't use it enough. Drive one from close to list say 15k miles, depreciation £4/mile; drive one 3k miles depreciation £15/mile, should have got out to more shine and cruise events.

Probably a whole lot more than the insurance a service and new tyres would have cost! Selling in the autumn won't have helped.

Robbo - sorry to see you leave the fold. Had mine on offer as well but i changed my mind. It is a fabulous car and i think depreciation has bottomed out. If not I don't care. Nothing out there really interests me so it is a keeper.

Apples and oranges and all that ?. That's a little like comparing 360 and a Scuderia. Huge diff in car, numbers and RRP.
