'Manual' Vanquish v DBS...a fair comparison?
Discussion
Was contemplating life, the universe and old car mags over the weekend whilst reclined in the garden enjoying probably the last weekend of sun that we'll get this year, and came across a collection of articles on the manual conversion offered by Works Service. All the reports were universally praiseworthy but I wondered if any Vanquish owners had had it done and what their experience(s) was/were?
Then it got me thinking about whether it would be a fair comparison to the DBS, from a value for money point of view aswell as a driving experience because Vanquish prices seem really keen now so even with the £15k cost of the conversion it would still be loads cheaper than a DBS.
Any thoughts Aston fans?

A fabulous idea ! If I were in the market, it is what I would do.

I dare say that you could pick up a Vanquish for a very reasonable 60k, then send it to Newport Pagnell and not only have the manual box fitted but have it upgraded to S specification. You could even have the interior personalised and re-trimmed to your choosing . It would be like a new car and made just for you. It would also be rare in the extreme and as cool as ice.
