had to sell my black with iron ore 05 Vantage this week to finance a business deal. If the new owner is a PHer then i wish you every fortune with her and look after her!

I have a set of 3 month old unmarked dark Cherry Aston over mats for sale if anyone is ineterested. (would advertise them in the classifieds but their isnt an Aston parts section).

Can you post any pics of the mats? Not too sure if they'll go with phantom grey interior and toro red exterior....

Sorry to hear you have parted with your toy, did it sell ok & achieve a decent price, trade or private?
The over mats certainly aren't cheap new at £195 a pop, the MRS treated me!!!

Indeed they are an expensive little number. I think you might be right about the colour clash. No pictures, sorry but the Aston dealer has a colour chip in the same colour, dark cherry.

Im asking £100 for them by the way.

I sold her through a local prestige garage who charged my 1K. Dropped 7K in 9 months so not horrendous. Hoped for a little more but the market is awash with 80K Vantages all of a sudden.

you cheapskate ! should have let the mats go with the car they were intended for.as for the cheek of asking £100 for a set of 2nd hand car mats thats nearly as bad as Aston asking £175 for the new ones!

I know how much the mats are as i bought them. Because i was in the unfortunate position af having to sell quickly a trader with 'a customer lined up' got my car for peanuts only to make thousands probably of instant profit.

I think he had enough of a bargain without me throwing any extras in, dont you??
