In the previous issue of Evo, the Vantage was delievered as one of their long term cars straight from the factory, and the owner(yeh, he contributes to the mag, lucky turd) had persistent problems. It got to the point where Aston offered to buy the car back, and of course he obliged. I wouldn't touch one of these cars w/ a 100ft poll to be honest. Give me a 997TT and I'll be even happier than if I had one of these CRAPton Martins.

Beautiful car though, very beautiful.

Brit cars have a soiled reputation for having pissy electronics.
