Tyre wear.. all models
Discussion
Obviously depends on driving style, but I picked up my used V8V one year ago tomorrow and have done 10k miles. The tyres were nearly new when I bought it (although I don't know exactly how old) and I've done about 10k miles and all of them still look pretty healthy. I'd describe my driving style as progressive (ie I like to arrive sooner rather than later, but not on the scale of Tiff "tyre smoke is great" Needle)
Rears go frigging fast on V12 models, I can tell you that! Replaced on my DBS around 18,000km. Celebrated this fact by doing this just before dropping off for fitting of new ones:

Can't recall what I got out of tyres on my Vantages, but I definitely reached a point with my first car (40,000km of ownership) where I had to replace fronts and not just rears.
Something interesting I recall from the Vantages was having to replace front and rear brakes at the same time.
