As I'm watching DBS and V12V prices while I make up my mind which one I rather have (it's taking forever!).

I've noticed DBS prices firming up a bit and V12V heading south. There's a 5000 mile V12V for £109k and very few DBSs under that.

Any ideas what's going on? Just dealers panic selling demo cars? My guess is that the better value DBS is dragging V12V values down?

I was all set on a DBS on account of saving a good few quid over the V12V but that doesn't seem to be the case any more.

There appears to be a disproportionate number of V12V that have suddenly come to market with a few miles on them compared to the number sold (still a relatively low number). It could be dealers not wishing to be stuck with stock (my dealer has had 3 pre-orders so far I believe) and there have cetainly been a number used for demonstration purposes (which is great and helped me make a decision - try getting a GT3RS for a test drive!) . I would think that with short term competition it would be an ideal time to buy one but once this glutch of sales is over I would expect prices to firm. All I can say is that it is a fantastic car and that the fewer bought new the better over time for resale values (if that is important to you). I don't ever intend selling mine !
