Of course. We spent an afternoon looking round Tonbridge after going to that very dealer in 2013. We were in our final leg 9f our 18 month of test driving cars and the Aston V8 vantage was the next to try.
Turned out to be pretty shonkey, that's when I spotted a brochure for the F-Type being released later that year in the Jag dealership opposite...the rest is history!

Yeah I Drove a vantage around Brands Hatch - the gearbox is rubbish compared to the F!

But I've kinda fallen in love a little bit with the new Vantage...

With the valves closed, it sounds just like stock. Unless of course, you're up above 4000rm.
I've finally pulled the trigger on the exhaust, waiting for it to arrive from Velocity then it'll be going straight on!

I've gone a bit mad this month...new exhaust for the Jag plus new Mountune exhaust and stage 1 tune for the Focus RS...the missus is completely bemused but I'm looking forward to the lot being done!!
