I bet it looks even more stunning in the flesh!

Well as far as I can tell that's no n420

Looks like a regular vantage after they changed the front and back to the v12/v8vs design but without the carbon fibre

The colour combination is gorgeous! I think I would be looking for signs of crash damage because in my opinion somebody has spent a lot of money bringing the cars appearance unto date. I'm probably wrong though. The AM dealer network is very keen to buy used stock, makes me wonder why the car is not with one of them.

Nice looking car - looks like a v12v boot? Bonkers that someone has special ordered that (e.g paid list) and only driven 3k miles frown £10 per mile depreciation?

It looks like VW Corrado Blackberry. Possibly my favourite car colour of all time. I love it!

The first suit I wore after leaving school was this colour. Double breasted and too big. It was from Top Man or Moss Bros, some quality brand like that. Loved it.

The interior is questionable, but like the paint.

It has a "tiptronic" gearbox apparently rolleyes

There was a V12 for sale with the same exterior colour - very lovely.

Not sure about the purple leather though.

Amethyst red, cream truffle with deep purple, black cherry carpet, purple fine stitch, Ivory headlining.
Standard 12.5MY, but with sport suspension.
Who ever buys this has a very special car. All colours on normal colour chart - although contemporary range.

Sir, your good wife has impugned my honour. It was aubergine coloured, and I'm pretty sure it was from Top Man (or a very similar brand). I bought a green one at the same time because of some offer. It was only years after I'd binned them that it dawned on me that others might not have loved them in the same way that I loved them.
