• You know you’re not the first. But do you really care? –

The Aston Martin Vanquish is one of our favourite Cool Classics. Not only because the V12 was very fast, especially for its time, but especially because of its unbeatable looks. The ultimate gentleman sports car! The Vanquish was born from ‘project Vantage’, where Aston Martin was busy developing the 6.0 V12. This was already released a little before the birth of the Vanquish in the DB7, which was an immediate success.

When the Vanquish was shown to the public in 2001, it was a new concept for Aston Martin, where the entire body was made of aluminium and the chassis of carbon fibre and aluminium.

The Vanquish was also given another version for the real Bonds among us: the Vanquish S. They probably had ‘The World Is Not Enough’ on replay. Especially for those people, the V12 was tickled from 460 to 520 HP and the gentleman’s coupé could reach 100 km/h in just 4.6 seconds. If you had a bit of space (and hair on your chest), even the 321 km/h was no problem.

As soon as you get in, you get an extra special feeling. It took ‘only’ 8 Conolly cows to provide the Vanquish S with its beautifully distinctive interior. As soon as you sit down you understand why Pierce Brosnan chose the Vanquish, the Rosamund Pike’s come naturally with this sex on wheels!

Ours has driven only 42 thousand kilometres, is original Dutch and has been serviced by a dealer. Looking for a gentleman’s car with serious potential? Also our Vanquish S is licensed to thrill!
