(..I believe they must have had mechanical problems with the aston,an needed a replacement car....could not find another one...& stuck a similar colour Audi...in it's place.!!)

There's nothing obvious to identify this as a Vantage model either as externally the two models were identical. Engine wise, this car could be a 6 cylinder DBS or a later V8, though I suspect that judging by its dodgy (Jaguar Primrose) paint job and down at heel appearance, it's an early DBS6 from the late 60's and probably a 'G' or an 'H' plate car, certainly no later than a 'J'. -- Last edit: 2007-01-13 14:56:30
