GlenMH Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Went along to a Pistonheads gathering this weekend and a new AM Vantage was there. Looked and sounded fantastic but..... Poorly built interior, lousy shutlines, crappy seats and the owner said that it was not that fast Certainly didn't seem like 90 grand's worth up close. Very very disappointed....

Baptist Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 My neighbour has got one in black. Ive had a sit in his and wasnt that impressed. Sounds gorgeous and looks good, but I know what you mean, very dissapointing build quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digsy Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 That's rubbish! How can they ruin one of the most beautiful cars made in the last 30 years by screwing it together with their eyes shut. The magazine reviews seem to suggest TVR build quality but that's not a TVR price.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baptist Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Shocking isnt it. Even my neighbour said he wasnt happy with the build quality of it. I hope to see him out on the road very soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 It's such a shame, Aston Martin is an awesome brand and I would love to be able to own one however hearing stories like these puts you off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
