“Having driven it for the past month I am only now getting used to the automated manual paddleshift gearbox and I love it. It’s a million miles away from a Porsche triplebypass clutch thingy, but I couldn’t care really. It’s a Vanquish and it looks awesome, and a spilt second when changing gear ain’t the end of the world. From the moment I wake up I look forward to pressing the glowing red start button which unleashes a symphony of cylinders and that sound alone is worth every penny.
“The sweetest thing of all is that cars like this are often overlooked and many in this region don’t even know what they are and subsequently few know their true value. As such, every now and then real bargains can be found. The proof is that I found this £174,000 ($267,000), 320kph supercar with 11,000 clicks on the clock for less than the price that my mate just paid for his 2012 Kia Sportage. Good times indeed.”
