This seems cheap for a 2007 MY Vantage even with the relatively high mileage.

Shame they couldn't even be bothered to wash it. Windscreen looks awfuly damp as well.

Even if it needed £5k spent on it, it's still doesn't seem dear for a 2007.

Seems very cheap especially for an MY07. Feels like it's priced to hide something as surely with a good clean and decent photos would at least warrant a £30k listing.

Steering wheel controls for the radio have stopped working? Unless it's had the (expensive) Bluetooth upgrade they would have never worked biggrin

Not tempted to have a look Nick? Given the spelling and grammar in the ad it *could* just be the person selling is a bit on the daft side so didn't think decent pics were worth the effort, more likely that the lights are failing, the clutch is going and the service stamps are from KwikFit - but you never know biggrin

Haha - it does seem like a ticking timebomb which has probably already gone off.

I've actually got some news to announce very shortly!

Oh I dunno. I found an ad for a manual DB9 that was equally bad, if not worse!

Well, it appears to have vanished off eBay...

Was anyone on here brave enough to take a punt on it?
