      If buying from a franchised dealer, they will come with 12 months Timeless warranty. Probably one of the most comprehensive warranties around.

    What a daft story.
    Have I told you about the time I nearly bought a McLaren P1. I was about 35 or 36, I got as far as talking to McLaren, I wanted to go down to MTC in Woking and drive the car back home. In the end it didn't happen because I didn't have enough money.

      @IULENZA 6 лет назад +4

      ofcourse, with 911 i was referring to normal 911, not the "special" version gt and gt rs (rs are definitelly not the ultimate daily btw xD)

    • @IULENZA

      actually i meant to say that a vantage has plenty of performance as a everyday sport car and imo is better than a standard 911 carrera 2/4

    I have to say, although I love the look of the AMR kit, it kind of ruins the lines and the true meaning of this car. I have to say I think a standard V8s needs a bit of optioning up so I’d rather spend whatever obscene amount Aston are charging for the AMR kit on carbon everything...

    • @christophernottingham5795
      @christophernottingham5795 6 лет назад

      I agree about the kit.... The spoiler is exactly that a SPOILER.... make the car look cheap....dislike spoilers like this with a passion...worst kind of upgrade. Looks like it should be bolted on a rover 200 or vauxhall astra ;)

    @mikemittel2691 6 лет назад

    Sam, thank you for doing another wonderful video on one of my most favorite cars. As an owner of a 2010 v8 manual with the sport package, I have to agree on the classic shape of the Vantage. I believe that even though it has been around since 2005, it has the sexiest lines of any car on the road today. In America you don’t see many on the road so it’s an honor to be able to show off this beautiful hand built sports cars. Thanks again Sam and have a Merry Christmas! Cheers!

  • @goldbug5180
    @goldbug5180 6 лет назад

    Glad to see someone else who really appreciates the v8 Vantage!! I always thought it was the perfect blend for a true driver between the V8 sounds, beautiful interior, and manual transmission. The V8 Vantage GT's are amazing if you can find them with the updated interior. Throw the titanium exhaust on there with the AMR aero pack and call it a day...

  • @detailingfinesse7457
    @detailingfinesse7457 6 лет назад

    I had a chance to drive a 2008ish v8 vert that a dealership I worked at had. I was driving an s2000 at the time and the vantage was not only obviously more refined, but the driving experience was leaps and bounds ahead! It felt like more of a sports car than the s2000. And the gearbox my god was it good. Dream car for sure
