Since 1914, Aston Martin have been hand building custom made sports cars to the highest specifications. The purchase of an Aston martin, for many is the realisation of a dream, thrilling both to drive and to own, which is why the Aston martin is a truly special car, and will remain so for many years to come.
The company uses British expertise in aerospace and race-car engineering. Conventional automotive industry standards just didn't cut it for the builders of Aston Martin, which is why it has becone possible for them to build the fastest road car in Aston Martin's history
With a maximum speed in excess of 200mph (321km/h) and a 6.0 litre V12 engine developing 520 horsepower, the Vanquish S has been designed to deliver even greater performance, complemented by subtle suspension and steering changes and a number of interior and external style revisions.
Despite the high-technology specifications, the Vanquish S is built in the same manner as other Aston Martins before it, one at a time, by hand. An individual craftsman takes responsibility for the creation of every car.
"The Vanquish is our flagship model and the standard 460bhp will continue to be built," said Aston Martin CEO, Dr Ulrich Bez. "However, this derivative makes the car even more exceptional. The latest Vanquish S is not only the fastest Aston Martin ever, but it is the best handling too. It is the ultimate high-performance Aston Martin."
The differences on the Vanquish S not only improve the appearance but also enhance performance. All the exterior body panels are constructed from aluminium with each individual panel hand tailored to the central structure to ensure a perfect panel fit. Every carefully detailed feature provides graphic evidence of the painstaking craftsmanship and quality, which is invested in its construction at Aston Martin’s Newport Pagnell site in Buckinghamshire.
The famous Aston Martin grille has a new rounded and more open appearance for better cooling, and an aerodynamic splitter improves high-speed stability.
At the rear, a redesigned boot lid featuring a new high mounted stop lamp reduces lift and improves balance and stability, helping to achieve an impressive Cd figure of 0.32.
Aston Martin have made some of the worlds most beautiful cars. Quality is their hallmark. Whilst outside, other road users will enjoy the external beauty of the vanquish S, but driver and passenger will be equally inpressed by the stunning blend of past and future inside the car. Bridge of Weir leather upholstery matched to contemporary metal interior fittings and finishes add to the style hallmark that is in every Aston's DNA
The luxurious but purposeful two seat or optional 2+2 cabin now features supportive all leather trimmed sports seats with many additional and exquisite detail touches which amply demonstrate the truly special nature of this unique hand crafted sports car.
