0-60 mph in 4.9 seconds- 'slow!' How FAST do people actually need to go? The aesthetics of the V8 Vantage are stunning- really beautiful, and well proportioned.
Totally agree. I love mine. It’s a beautiful car and speed means nothing.
@@oliver13809 I am in love with this one and the Jaguar F-Type. Do you think the Aston is substantially more expensive to own? thx
Lovely piece of art, hope to own mine one day 😊
yes, that color is very nice. mine is, IMO, the darker and less attractive meteorite silver.
and it's no wonder previous owners did not sort the knocking noise. maintenance staff in general are well-versed in making excuses as to why client's problems that would involve free service are in the client's imaginations.
I like the darker grey, works better if your want to add black accents. I heard it all, the delivery driver who use to work on Astons, Aston engineer and the garage. In the end I knew something wasn’t right.
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.
I think its brilliant it does 0-60 in 4.9 instead of 2.5. You can enjoy the sound much longer
He keeps calling it noise... It's a symphony!😁
great video, you should not have trouble selling the car, however, this sort of vehicle, is ideally suited to someone whos looking for long term ownership, that being said, when ones young, and a new addition arrives, peoples circumstances can change, and sacrifices need to be made unfortunately, im tempted in this myself, as its a coin flick between the DB9 and the V8 Vantage, im still pretty much undecided right now, but i will be keeping my eye on this, thanks
It is a pretty Aston and still looks a little like the original Bond car.
I have nearly owned my ‘06 Vantage for the same amount of time… however, mine ticks too and I have been told by mechanics that it is nothing to worry about unless the sound drives me crazy. With that said, I must have missed the cars you’re after potentially? I am also a new dad. So congratulations and great review!
Very kind and congratulations on becoming a dad.
As for the noise, the the Ferrari Center said the same thing, the engine was perfect just a “can you live with it” question. As for the next car here is the blog - vint-tro.com/petrolhead-vs-family/ .
A car is missing from the list, since the blog a 991 911 turbo s could be another contender.
I want one. The V12 Vantage S Roadster in manual format.
nice video, it's time to sell my M3 and grab one of these.
This is just 1 massive sales pitch 😂😂 I don’t have to sell it, Really? Sounds like you’re desperate pal, I will keep mine as i don’t really need to sell it!
You are right, this was a video to see if there was interest in buying a good car, and there was and now it’s sold and living in New Zealand. Please see the video of Jonathan’s replacement.
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.
Very interesting, wonderful car. Well done and congratulations.
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.
But then why did you only own if for 2 years???
@@loenigma69I still own it. I plan to keep it for many years.
Lovely piece of art, hope to own mine one day 😊
Beautiful people drive Beautiful cars 🚗 ❤ dream car 🚗 😍
Need better lighting and camera work but amazing car
Nice to have a look round a lovely example. Good luck with the sale.
Thank you, now the hard bit of parting with a great example which you really want to keep
what's the colour of this beautiful aston?
Lovely car, nice spec and additions. Love mine. Good luck with the sale.
Thank you, a few interested parties and a couple of offers.
mismatched piston shims? how did that come about? also, how did you not hear this when first looking at the car?
Tbh, sometimes you miss obvious things when you fall in love with a car. This was one. I am not sure on the shims, maybe British engineering 😊
"I need to keep my wife happy..........." Says it all, and aptly sums up why I would never marry and adhere to the female agenda!
Translated: No one will have me.
Incredible specimen of a early V8V. Such good shape and so many upgrades wow.
Thank you, such a pleasure to own this car, but replacement coming soon hopefully, so watch out 😊
Before buying ANY Aston consider this; dig a hole in your garden and everyday go and throw a tenner in it and see how it feels!
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.
I will give you a secret, that most of the vantage parts are land rover / ford. you can save up some money.
huummm
Mine is the titanium silver. Beautiful colour.
Meravigliosa auto
Why that music in the background while you are talking? I will never understand why people do that. Do you think the background music makes your video more 'entertaining' etc.? Are you after clicks/likes? Or is your main purpose to convey a message with substance to people interested in finding out more about these cars? If the latter, the background music is utterly superfluous and just sucks.
Thank you for watching and sorry you feel that way. We try our best with our videos, and sometimes we don’t get it right for everybody, but we do listen to advice, so appreciate your comment.
@@Vinttro Thank you. And sorry for my too harsh comment. I made it in the 'heat of the moment' ;). Apart from the background music this is a great video about a great car!
what colour is it again ? - I cant hear it
Tungsten grey
I don’t like a stubby one in my hand .
Hi, is the car still for sale ?
Hi I’m interested in your car
Sorry it’s now sold and living in New Zealand
What year is this and did you get new headlights?
Loooong sales pitch 😅
That’s a loooooong sales pitch
🤤
Has the car been sold yet?
Hi, yes it’s sold, went to New Zealand in the end
0:14??
Shims?....in mid 00's......pathetic from Aston. Should have been hydraulic. Old Testarossa's had shims.....old and an annoying maintenance cost
That is the perfect color for a proper Aston sir 👍
