Damn... I had decided I was looking for an 09MY 4.7 and was going to pay cash for it... That video now has me thinking about using my cash as a deposit for a new V12VS Manual...

Even if it's not paid for it'd be an epic toy for a 30th birthday present to myself biggrin

My man maths calculator has just been fetched from the study drawer laugh

Fantastic, I want one - Oh, hang on.... .tongue out

I have to say Clarksons first review of the V12V is a stand out piece from all the Top Gear shoots, ever - and I try to say that without an Aston bias. It is just TG and Clarkson at their finest, and I have had Brian Eno's "an ending" in the car ever since the first week this was aired.

Thanks for posting all clips above! cool

I bought my V12V after seeing the Clarkson video, the new AML one for the V12VSM is not having the same effect.....

Still for me the best car review of all time. And it can't contain more than about 40 words

Agreed. TG and Clarkson at their finest. Although Clarkson can be a complete t*t at times, he can also be absolutely brilliant. Documentaries of his about, for example Brunel, and also the ill-fated WWII merchant convoy crossing the Atlantic were first-rate - beautifully written and presented. Can still be a prize plonker though.

It looks like someone has taken a beautiful V12 Vantage and has just completed a drive through Halfords with a large Halfords voucher to spend. I might add I guess said persons previous car was a Nova with a big exhaust on it.

Was that meant for a different thread?

No I was referring to the car in the AM release which is a beautiful organic shape which has been spoilt by go faster stripes and the addition of contrasting colours. Some of the V12s look really good but that combination imo just looks wrong.
