After being rear ended by a Silverado in February, my Vantage has been totaled out. The damage was sufficient that Aston Martin would not authorize the repair as the collision had distorted the structural body tub. By far the best car I have ever owned, and not the last Aston Martin I will own. Three years of a great ownership experience, it feels like we're losing a family member.

Thankfully, my wife and I were unhurt, and the car performed exactly as designed for safety, a testament to the engineers at Gaydon.

The search begins anew. Anyone know of a 2007 Tungsten on black with a manual transmission coupe on the market? There doesn't seem to be much out there right now.

 

Sorry to hear that, most importantly you & your wife are ok. I'm sure you'll find a replacement car, but it may take longer for manual transmission, seems like lately there are not many on market. On the other hand sport shifts are all over the market & prices are going down.....

 

Happy it looked after you both…shame the Chevy driver wasn’t paying attention..fingers crossed that the search is somewhat painless…

 

On a grin, I checked Craig's List in LA and found a 2007 that might fit your needs...not sure of the exact color, but it has some obvious extras and is a manual.

Not a bad looking and spec car…
