Am currently in my second 4.3 V8 Vantage (roadster this time), however an 'itch' has started with the start of the new year!

I've caught myself 'looking' at various 4.7 roadsters for sale, so I'm now in a new-year dilema - if I change my 4.3 for a 4.7 what will I notice for the price?

Over to those of you who have made this change for your comments please............

I did exactly the same - 4.3 coupé to 4.3 roadster to 4.7 roadster. IMO, the 4.7 is a much better car all round, especially with the sports pack. The engine is what should have powered the car from day 1 and the interior is an improvement (not that the 4.3 was poor, far from it). The only criticism I have of the 4.7 is the 'key' fob - I (childishly, perhaps), preferred the colour-changing push button, although that did mean putting up with the cheap ignition key.
