Ok so I`m average Joe that's squirreled away enough to buy a used 2007 vantage. I`m worried about reliability I`m looking at a 6 speed manual trans with about 32 tho on the clock. Can you service the car at any other place besides a dealer? What should I look out for. I would intend to drive the car about 5000 of so a year and I know the value drops like a stone but where do you guys see the value of this car at in say 5 years time with around 50,000 miles? Thanks for your time.

Do NOT buy any AM less than 2008 (for the V12)
for the V8 just google it and good luck

V8 Vantage

My 2007, purchased new, has always been a hard riding car. It really is not designed for city roads or poor highways and AM do not have a solution. One service tech said to reduce the air pressure in the tires.

I would hope that the car has depreciated to its lowest level, now about 60,000 retail in Canada.

It has been very reliable but oil changes will stun you. Tonyg
