That Aston moment is almost at hand....!

[AMArchie]

Hi all,
I just had to let everyone know that I've been advised my V12 Vantage has arrived at the dealership, and I am booked to take delivery this coming Friday!
I placed the order on 6th April, so that puts it at just a fraction under 3 months - pretty quick really (although it seems to have taken forever).
Needless to say, I cannot wait. I reckon taking delivery will be almost a religious experience!!!
Pictures will be posted asap.

I had a factory tour last Thursday - coincided it with being away on hols in the south of England.

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC EXPERIANCE AND PLACE!!

I seem to remember telling them to hurry up with your car Archie

[AMArchie]

Looks like it did the trick!!
I'll be taking it down to Goodwood on Saturday for its first 'outing'

It was Simon Stanton. Great fellow and extremely knowledgable. He didn't come across as a salesman, but i'm definately sold! The problem is my current car situ is rather complicated and to get into a V12V (which i have to own sometime soon) is going to be financially painful and i cant work out yet how/when to sell my GT3 and GTI and get a V12V plus a "runaround"!

Well folks..It arrived last Friday, and I am pleased as punch with it.



My goodness what a car, I covered a mere 250 miles over last weekend, but each mile was better than the last. A really tremendous drive.

My word that looks like a beast.

Congrats! I would say enjoy her, but I can't see how it could possibly be anything other than sheer delight.
