Vanquish daily driver?

[CRW4]

Thinking of buying an immaculate 02 Vanquish with 18k on the clock and a proper AM service history for use as a daily driver. My hesitations are around reliability and the gearbox / transmission smoothness when driving around town. Any thoughts / words of wisdom from Vanquish owners out there gratefully received. Previous wheels were a '97 Porsche 993 C2S, now reluctantly sold.

Thanks to you all for the very helpful advice. I am asking more questions along the lines suggested. To add more detail omitted from the original post -- I am a Brit in the US, where for some strange reason an immac Vanq can be had for less than an early, higher mileage DB9. So whereas the Vanq is asking $65k, it's diff to find any DB9s below $80k. Plus, despite the risks of expensive repairs, the idea of having something so rare (esp here) makes the Vanq infinitely more appealing. Btw, when I say "daily driver" I am still only talking about ~6k miles a year as much commute is relatively short and I don't do it everyday.

F1 NDW -- that is inspirational stuff! I am now reinvigorated in my search. Thanks.
