INTRODUCTION: Only 2,655 actual miles! Very possibly the best one
in existence. The Carfax is spotless with only 2 owners and regular
maintenance and inspections. The Vanquish was hand built in England
and was Aston Martin's Flagship model. This Supercar was priced at
$245,900 new, which is equivalent to $435,000 today! Capable of
0-60 in 4.5 seconds and a top speed of 190mph! It was praised by
the critics and called the ultimate Grand Tourer. Aston Martin has
always been synonymous with 007, this is the car represented in the
James Bond film- Die Another Day.
EXTERIOR: A stunning blend of elegance and super car aggression
with muscular flowing lines. It is virtually flawless, I couldn't
find any defects. The super formed aluminum body panels were
individually hand finished, then given nine coats of black metallic
which were hand flattened in between coats. It took 54 hours to
prepare, paint and polish the Vanquish. The Michelin Pilot Sport
tires are wrapped around 18 inch wheels.
INTERIOR: It is spotless inside too. Very sophisticated and sporty
at the same time. This one has the optional 2+2 rear seat package.
The exquisite hand stitched upholstery takes 78 hours and 8 Bridge
of Weir leather hydes to trim the interior, there's glove soft
leather everywhere! The power Recaro seats have lumbar and optional
heat. This one has the premium stereo with an amplifier, subwoofer,
speakers and tweeters throughout. I tested it out and it made my
hair move! The tilt-telescopic wheel has paddle shifters for some
spirited driving. From the Wilton carpet to the alcantara headliner
it is first class!
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: This high revving V-12 with 4 valves per
cylinder makes an impressive 460 hp. Each engine assembly was done
by hand. This motor compartment is still like brand new, it is an
interesting mechanical marvel just to look at!
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Of course it is like new and has some high class
features. Under the trunk lid is an Aston Martin umbrella and there
is also an Aston Martin branded first aid kit. This is also where
you will load your favorite CDs into the CD changer. There is also
a battery disconnect.
UNDERSIDE: The Vanquish used a carbon fiber and alloy structure
which was a big advancement for Aston Martin. It is very clean
underneath and it is mostly covered with an aerodynamic aluminum
pan. Features include a stainless dual exhaust with a sport mode, 4
wheel ABS drilled disc brakes and speed sensing power steering. The
suspension has front and back independent double wishbones with
swaybars. The trans is an automated 6-speed manual with overdrive
and the rear end has 3.69 posi gears.
SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and reputation. Therefore, we
built a 2 million dollar, 10,000 square ft service center, and
hired a team of technicians to service the essentials on every car
we sell.
CONCLUSION: A true blend of old world craftsmanship and new world
engineering. Only 1489 Vanquish were built total over a 3 year
period, this one is #1321. Being it's one of the best there is, it
has great investment potential.
For nearly 30 years, I, Jay Grams, have personally written the
highlights for almost every car in our collection. What I provide
is my professional opinion based on my experience with these
vehicles. However, opinions can vary, and I strongly recommend a
personal inspection to form your own view. Our sales team is always
available to answer any questions you may have. One great option is
to request a personalized walk-around video, where we can showcase
the car and share our team's insights. **Our cars are displayed
within a museum setting. If you are interested in a specific
vehicle, please schedule an appointment with a salesperson to view
it. Without an appointment, there is an admission fee to enter the
showroom. If you decide to purchase a car, your admission will be
refunded, and you'll receive a one-year museum membership.
