With the Geneva MS just a month away, thought it would be good to KO discussions on what might show itself on the Aston front...

I'll start:

- New Vantage
- One Last (current) Vantage Special (?) - have heard some rumours that something along these lines will out... Could be interesting!

We'll be going down for the day and are looking forward to a Nice Day Out

Any inputs/ thoughts/ more speculation ??

I too am thinking of popping over to it. Never been and if there are some nice new AM bits to look at, then it could be a fun trip.

Well isn't that called a V12 Vantage S with the Performance Pack?

Bit of a mouthful though. V12R would be more catchy wink

If they are bringing out a model called V12R, bearing in mind current roadster is often referred to here as a V12VSR, does that make a roadster version of this 'new model' a V12VRR ? Or just a V12RR ?

And if they offer a manual version (which the last time I looked, you couldn't do with the performance pack), does that make it a V12VRRM ? Or a V12VRMR ?

Suddenly I'm not so sure it is catchy :-)

Try fitting "V12 Vantage S with the Performance Pack" on the boot lid smile

I really have no idea what's happen though.

No problem.

I think I have read on here, that you don't get a model badge any more, unless you pay extra. smile
