Mansfield is an unknown quantity at this point
New member from Germany

Hi all, before i start to post some questions to this forum I would like to introduce myself as the owner of a 2007 4.3 V8 Vantage.

Ive been active on the forum from the otherside of the pond but find myself reading some of the excellent threads on here.

Ive done mostly visual mods to the car (wrap, grill, wheels etc) but also 200 cell cats and started servicing the car myself.
Any questions im happy to answer.

Mansfield.

Welcome to our group, your car looks very cool. I had a 2007 Vantage as well. Great car. We need more photos and specs.

Love the color of your Vantage. If it was a 911 it would be Mexico blue.

Welcome to the states Guessing you are coming from Pistonheads? Another excellent forum. I like 6Speed as there are a good number of do-it-yourself memebers that post excellent how-to's as they work their magic.

Thank you for all the welcome guys, there's such a great resource here.

To answer a few questions:

Its very close to one of the Porsche blues, the wrap is Avery Supreme Gloss Light Blue.

Hi Old phart, you are correct, the other forum being Pistonheads (same username) which I've seen you on, both great resources for us enthusiastic owners.

Ive been living here near to Munich for over 10 years now, orginally from England. Freiburg is a beautiful city, some great driving roads also nearby.

Hi Tobi, was about to ask if you wanted to go for a drive one day then realised you are now based in Florida....I guess the winters are much warmer there.
