Stark9 Posted September 26, 2023 Report Share Posted September 26, 2023 (edited) Sooo my thoughts are on possibly changing my car. I have a budget of £80k. Love my 718S but looking at the 4.0 GTS I’m slightly worried that the 718 is nearing its end date at 7 years now, that a new one will be out next year in electric form. What are peoples thoughts on a 69 plate Vantage in its place as below…just trying to upload it Edited September 26, 2023 by Stark9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davey P Posted September 26, 2023 Report Share Posted September 26, 2023 Absolutely stunning mate, and one of the few cars on the road today that looks even better than the 981 Cayman (IMHO of course) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve7 Posted September 26, 2023 Report Share Posted September 26, 2023 running costs are in a different league to porkers, think Ferrari & Bentley prices...I quite like them though and see the attraction, but the 911 is better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks and sounds awesome (though he's making it even louder as the sound is muffled in the cabin). I'm not jealous (honest!). Go for it!

Stuart21UK Posted September 26, 2023 Report Share Posted September 26, 2023 same category as 911 not as sporty as either 911 or 718 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stark9 Posted September 26, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2023 Keeping the 911, just thinking about changing my 718S. Would love a new gen Bentley V8 but can’t afford that just yet. The Vantage was good but tbh I wasn’t amazed by it. The internal Plastics are a bit cheap but loved the full alcantara trim. Rear quad pipes are small and not well kept. And one last thing that is not making me go ahead, insurance £4800 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stark9 Posted October 12, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2023 Well, done the deal today and purchased the Aston, sorted the insurance too so all good Should be ready to pick up on Sat, managed to get 2 years warranty, a car cover and a day at Millbrook, so all good. Will be sad to leave you guys here 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scubaregs Posted October 12, 2023 Report Share Posted October 12, 2023 Nice, pics of course and no need to leave, lots of us no longer have cars that suck our bang balances dry like a blowjob obsessed vampiress Porsches. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you enjoy it. And I'm still not envious...honest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
