Hey Just watched your video 😢 I too have a Toro red 2006 vantage ALSO with white racing circles How weird

Nice review and story man....only one thing: you could have done it outside! Ahahahah. Amazing car tho....I hope one day I'll have one too.

My first car was a mark 2 escort in 93 it was a 1600 sport but I added cibbies the rear boot lip spoiler , fish net recaros and a Jan speed exhaust

Sad to hear about Julie. She looked like a lovely lady. Ive been saving up for a 2013 to 2016 porsche cayman s with the flat 6 engines. After looking online i started looking at the Aston Martin V8 Vantages and surprised you can pick them up now for less than that porsche

huummm

I think its brilliant it does 0-60 in 4.9 instead of 2.5. You can enjoy the sound much longer

I love the Ford Escort Mk1 & Mk2 ,I have had both from 1300E and a RS2000 Custom,with stage 2 head and twin 45 carbs 5 speed gearbox close ratios,and a full Janspeed exhaust,also billy suspension all round lowered 2 inch on Millilite wheels in Black.it was a very harsh ride but was very quick for the day.My mate had a series 2 lotus sunbeam he still has it in the back of his garage and still rust free thanks to wax oil every where.The RS is still in immaculate condition and still with the guy I sold it to 25 years ago.

Above tbe out riggers . You cant see ,unless you lift the body .

Shims?....in mid 00's......pathetic from Aston. Should have been hydraulic. Old Testarossa's had shims.....old and an annoying maintenance cost

Loooong sales pitch 😅

You should have the roof off, the experience is even better that way

Mine is the titanium silver. Beautiful colour.

Sadly since posting this video the values have crashed and these cars are now virtually unsalable in view of the absolutely horrendous fuel consumption, I agree though a beautiful design

Fantastic, congratulations! Any news on the rebuild?

Mine had a full Chassis restoration care of James Agger

got one been all around the UK never let me down. THe noise is awesome !

Don't have one in Cumbria. Asked for a full respray and they said not worth the hassle. Too busy respraying stuff on insurance jobs for overpaid workers at Sellafield !!

Beautiful people drive Beautiful cars 🚗 ❤ dream car 🚗 😍

Beautiful machine.

I love watching Chimaera videos as it makes me want one more and more! Its definitely on my shopping list! They also did a 4.3 btw and the older models didn't have the mirror microswitches to get in. Instead, they had a mechanical push button on the body to the rear of the door on the top edge. Another fun quirk is that the steering column, key barrel and keys and stalk, come from a Cavalier! Mk3 specifically but the older mk2's share the same keys too! Always makes me smile as I own three mk2 Cavs and thinks its funny that I can pretend they're TVR keys 😁

Beautiful car and amazing colour but you didn't give much detail about the mechanics, for example I believe these cars only get about 10 mpg and the clutch is allegedly very heavy and expensive to replace, also parts for these cars are overly expensive. These cars are so much better looking than say a Porsche but I'm sitting on the fence whether to buy one or not.

Fantastic review of a great car Simon. Ive been thinking of getting a Chimaera, but not sure which engine...!!! What would you recommend from the 4.0, 4.0HC, 4.3, 4.5 or 5.0 ? I know the 4.3 and 4.0HC are early models and the 4.5 is most recent. As these cars weigh around 1080kg, it wont make much difference. But is there a particular engine that has the least amount of issues? Thanks.

You said in your video they only made RS Mexicos in 1978. They were made from 1976 - 1978 not just in 1978.

These cars get such a terrible reputation for being unreliable. This statement couldn't be any further from the truth. Aston Martin vantages are truly hand built cars with so much attention to detail put into every point of driver to vehicle contact(areas that a driver will come into contact with and or view/see/notice upon every transaction made with the vehicle). They're far more reliable than any BMW M car or Mercedes Benz AMG you could EVER buy. I've owned many, and my AM V8V has had legitimately NO issues in comparison. Considering I'm 1 of the few ppl who actually put real milage on it. An by milage, I mean a shit load more than the avg 1-2k per yr that seems to be the avg these cars see across North America. Instead I've put an avg of between 5k to 10k miles per year since I've purchased it. Hands dowm best car I've ever owned. Treat it right, don't be afraid to perform ur own maintenance and sit back an enjoy the smiles per gallon(also gets same milage as my w204 C63AMG AND my e90 S65M3) and the non stop looks u get from everyone u pass everywhere u go.

The 4.5 is a better ar .

That’s a loooooong sales pitch

I’ve owned an 08 V-8 Vantage Roadster with a manual transmission for two years and I love the car. It’s been very reliable and a joy to drive and take to car shows.

Meravigliosa auto

Hi, is the car still for sale ?

what's the colour of this beautiful aston?

🤤

I don’t like a stubby one in my hand .

ALLOYS,ALLOYS,ALLOYS,not allis🙏🙏🙏 love these cars but favourite model is mk1👍👍👍👍

dont forget the 280 brooklands!

I want one. The V12 Vantage S Roadster in manual format.

That is an amazing car, but why not the manual? Won’t you miss that?

Any updates? Happy New Year

That is the perfect color for a proper Aston sir 👍

I'm the proud owner of this bad boy now 😎

It is a pretty Aston and still looks a little like the original Bond car.

Absolutely beautiful and utterly stunning! Two years on, I hope all is well and subs have continued to increase. Roll on next summer and getting some more tanning! 🙏

I had 5 Capri's in the 80's. The best 2 I had were a 1979 3.0S UBG3V and a 1982 2.8i DTJ900Y.

Ooh, she'll be crusty round the spring hangers

How much did the full respray cost ?

What year is this and did you get new headlights?

Looks like it's left to rust badly sadly I say it's too far gone but hey that's my view

Fabulous

Just what I want to do to my mine, exactly the same as yours! Would you mind sharing the link to the grill you purchased? Thanks

Hello there Vintro, do you have an L320 Range Rover Sport available for sale,? Preferably 3.0 Diesel Model Year 2012.
