So im currently on my third FType (2019 R), and been toying with the idea of an AM Vantage or DB11.

Today, I ordered a new F Type SVR instead! One of the last production run of SVR's still in JLR unallocated stock. A lot cheaper than a new face lift R, and my dream car..... stupidly excited! Arrives early August! :D :D :D

I spent 4 days doing a 'Paint Correction Detail' with a ceramic coating on a customer's 2019 Aston Martin Vantage in 'China Grey'. I really like it - I think it's the best looking Aston Martin of all their models. This car was 150k when new and even has those special Aston Martin badges at the front and back which cost 3k!!!!

Good choice not getting the facelift R - don't get me started on how bland and boring the new face is. No character and very generic.

Good choice with the SVR! You'll love it. I have the 'R'.

ive got to completely disagree, i love some astons but the front of the latest vantage is an abomination, truly awful. i like the side and rear profile but even if i won the lottery i'd buy the vanquish s before that.

4 F-Types! 😮
Wow, you must change them every year. 😉

Maybe you'll stick with your dream car for a bit longer.

Anyway... congrats.
