Just thought I would pop my head up over the parapet and say hello, have been a "lurker" for 13 or so years on the Aston forum on PH. As a member of the sales team at HWM Aston Martin it is difficult to want to get in involved or be apart of the forum for various reasons. But today I thought why not, some of you may well know me most probably do not. I was lucky enough to have purchase a V12 Vantage last year from a great customer and an enthusiast owner V12VMan - with a bit of time and a bit money of coarse know how bought the 85,000 mile V12 Vantage back to almost as new condition - very happy with the vehicle and do intend on using it fully whilst in my ownership. Hopefully we see some of you at different events over this year.

Well, it's an Aston Martin Vantage with a V12 engine, so what do you think it's going to be like?

That is some mighty impressive lurking Stuart! Well done on your new acquisition. I’m sure you don’t need me to tell you what wonderful special cars they are. They always look rather good in black imho, but I am slightly biased. wink
Fingers crossed for some decent weather. BRM.

Nice to see you lurking on here Stuart and glad you’re enjoying the black beast, I was delighted to find out that it had gone to very good home where it’ll be loved like I did. Having watched your video on the HWM YouTube channel I can see you’ve given her a real work oversmile

She was part of my life for over 9 years and as you know I came to regret not having a Vantage in my garage! That’s now all sorted and as a consequence you’ll see I’m now N430 man and no longer V12Man!

Hopefully catch up over a coffee at Brooklands.

Slight thread hijack, but just saw a 2012 v12v went for £56k on collecting cars today - anyone on here the lucky new owner ? Given the £18k 2022 service it says it had, it looks like you may have got a good deal there !

That’s me… slightly scary buying an Aston at auction but the seller seems sensible. Hopefully when I pick the car up in a couple of weeks it’s as good as described!

Congratulations Stuart. My V12V in Hammerhead was the best car I have ever owned. Maybe it will not give you the same thrills as your Ducati but not far off. Enjoy in good health.
