V12 Roadster - Flame Orange

[Wattyboy]

This basically is perfect for me other than little concerned on colour. I presume a bit marmite - some will like and others hate. I quite like it but concerned will get it home and under certain conditions will be too bright

Is it going to be difficult to sell in future? Everything else on car is perfection

Yes, it`s bright but it sits well on the V12 and overall a very tasteful spec and quite unique. The colour wouldn`t scare me away.

I’ve had / have some bright coloured cars but never an orange one so I feel I’m still due one.
If it’s right for you then don’t worry about what other people think.
Chiltern are a decent enough company.
As you / the advert says huge spec inc the lightweight seats which from experience of mine just add to the equation.
Maybe ask them to send you a walk around video if you are some distance away.

I think it look superb.

I think it looks rather sublime. Chiltern also have a DBS Carbon Edition for sale in the same colour, as both cars belonged to the same owner. V12V Roadster does not come up for sale very often as there were only 101 units ever produced, and imho one as unique as this is unlikely to hang around despite the strong asking price. My advice to any prospective buyer would be don’t dither for too long! BRM.

I think it looks fantastic, lovely spec, great colour .... I prefer Aston's not to be silver, black or grey, so this colour would be right up my street.

[scampbird]

I think McGurk are putting a Flame Orange V12 Vantage coupe up for sale. I love the colour, prefer it to the usual greys and blacks personally.

I think it looks great, the colour, the spec, and its a rare manual

That’s unanimous then - you need to just buy it before someone else does

Looks great to me eyes. It's a gregarious car so doesn't look out of place wearing what some might describe as a garish colour.

[AB]

Looks fantastic and I don't think I've ever seen another. Buy it!

[AdamV12V]

Stunning car!

Looks like somebody has reserved it already, hopefully it's the OP!

Congrats to whoever it is

[Wattyboy]

It is me!

And thanks to all for responses. Made the difference

[BlackTails]

These cars make a lot of noise. Not much point trying to blend in with an anonymous colour IMO.

Very well done indeed, and you’re getting it at the right time of year too. It is at times like these when I wish PistonHeads would have a “like” button similar to Facebook. BRM.

[macdeb]

LOVE the colour.

Just look in any car-park... There are too many boring cars in boring colours. To me, that colour is a selling point.

Hoorah!! Drive it and enjoy it.

It looks stunning and that’s coming from someone who’s had two Astons, each being the “boring” dark grey and then light grey.

Own it and love it. An Aston looks incredible in any colour, so you can’t go wrong.

Congratulations on your new car. You know you want it, lol.

Congratulations on your purchase. That’s a hell of a car with an epic specification, especially the carbon seats, you’ll appreciate those.
A special car
