This was interesting I thought! Someone who knows what colour they like!

Finally, an AM for me. Would go well with my pork, which is also rather orange.

Quite a fetching colour but I don't know if I would like it on everything.

Utterly Bonkers that in 2010 someone went into a Dealer and just asked for 'one of everything' in exactly the same spec and then doesn't drive any of them anywhere. :bonkers:
Anyone worked how much they are going lose on the deal if they only fetch €500k eek

I think they are great!!

I think the DBS pair will fetch decent money as will the v12 vantage.

The Rapide is an odd one as it has aged so well and looks great on the road, just not in bright orange!

The V8 Vantage Volante should achieve a good price.
It must be the only one in the world.

I wonder if the orange collector, ever managed to obtain a real orange car. Six were built.

I think this photo has previously been posted on another topic.

How does buying eight appeal ?





The collector seemed to stop buying after the 2018 Vantage was launched.

Went for almost €750K, so almost £650K.

Not the best investment then, probably halved his money. scratchchin

Do we agree, that a different colour might have achieved a higher price ?

of course a different color would have increased the value of them. While sure the db11 or madagascar orange vantage above look fine, the market for such colors is still very small. The orange chosen for that collection is a rather poor choice of orange too.

At one time, orange (was?) the new black (or grey..)..

I assume this was Stelios? A particularly insipid orange.

The Madagascar above is very nice, though.

Insipid biggrin

Well, the colour has had many comments, though not that one before..

Somehow it’s nice to know it can still be described similarly to my ‘duller’ cars.. smile
