Vantage in classifieds 275 miles only

[barefoot]

Anyone know what this car will have cost on the road with the extras, curious to know how much the 275 miles has cost?

Add sport shift, heated seats, memory seats and mirrors, premium audio and £2k and that's the OTR price I paid. Although the deals on E bay on 420'S are superb offers as well.

Retail last time I looked was £110K plus extras, but I don't think anyone has ever paid the retail. I was offered a brand new V8V last year for £88K but decided on an almost new DB9 instead with lots of options on it.

Didn't realise the new V8Vs were still coming with the old rear lights - with all the options you think they would have put the new white / silver ones on??

Clear rear lights are still an optional extra (apart from on the N420). Personally, I'm not sure they look so good with Tungsten. The red look better IMHO.

I was struck at how basic the car is, it doesn't have memory seats, has the basic music system, standard seats, red rear lights, it seems to have been poorly spec'd, so its probably not dropped too much, assuming the buyer negotiated a good discount.

But once you start the engine, you won't care about anything apart from the V8 music, you can't see the back lights, just fix the seat where it works for you, and you'll love it.

Yep It was also registered just before the plate changes
I suspect some one meeting quota's there!

IMHO the Tungsten looks brilliant with the clear lights.

Damm!!!
I thought I'd convinced myself to cross clear lights off my upgrade list...

[bogie]

if you buy and sell pretty much any £100K car as a private individual, then you can pretty much write off £25K or more...not many cars are going up in value

theres 20% vat, then the dealer sell and (re) buy margin

I bought my Vantage originally around 10 months old, for £25K off original list, when there were only a handful for sale

Indeed they do. But, they don't work with every colour combination due to the grey edging.
