I saw one last week. Sounded horrible TBH, and I easily overtook him in my 10 year old Primera*.







* That's a lie, it was in the S, but he was driving so slow I could have overtaken him in my 10 year old Primera.

Very nice. I would rather have the primera though

How do they perform on the track? Or is it not that type of car?

my next door neighbour has a DB9 and the old V8 sounds better imo , plus the vantage has better lines - those hunkered rear arches etc.

I would imagine they would handle very well. IIRC they have a monocoque shell and the handling is very good.

They are heavy though so lets say a capable track car.

It's not going to be going any further than the paddock at any track and will probably be easy prey for Primeras on anything other than a long straight road

100% posemobile, and why not?

Personally, I think he's mental spending that much on a ornament but we've been through all that and I'm genuinely excited for him now
