welcome trades! Until just a few short years ago, the V12 Vanquish
S was the fastest production model ever built by Aston Martin with
a top speed in excess of 200mph (321km/h). This accomplishment
firmly placed Aston Martin among a short list of automakers to have
successfully surpassed this exclusive barrier and the car held the
top speed record with Aston Martin for nearly a decade to come. The
Vanquish S was designed to deliver even greater performance,
complemented by subtle suspension and steering changes and a number
of interior and external style revisions over the standard V12
Vanquish. Changes to complement the elegant yet muscular body
included a newly rounded grill with more open appearance for better
cooling, and an aerodynamic splitter improving high-speed
stability. At the rear, a redesigned boot lid featured a new high
mounted stop lamp reducing lift and improving balance and
stability, helping to achieve an impressive Cd figure of 0.32.
These differences on the Vanquish S not only improved the
appearance but also enhanced performance. The V12 Vanquish features
a body tub made from extruded aluminum and Carbon Fiber with
extensive use of more Carbon Fiber and composite materials
throughout the crash structure of the car. This extremely rigid and
safe body shell was then clothed in hand-finished, Superformed
aluminum panels 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 Martins Newport Pagnell site in Buckinghamshire. Revised
steering geometry provided a 20% quicker response, allowing the
driver to apply a reduced input for required steering response.
This enables the driver to be more precise with inputs especially
on winding roads and more accurate feedback from the chassis. The
Sports Dynamic suspension, steering and braking package is standard
on the Vanquish S. This includes stiffer springs and dampers and
shorter steering arms. The brakes were upgraded to incorporate
larger six-piston calipers and larger grooved and ventilated front
discs. The rear discs are 2mm wider for improved heat dissipation.
The use of floating discs ensures the driver has consistent pedal
feel under heavy braking whilst a new brake pedal assembly reduces
travel and enhances pedal feel. Further development of Aston
Martins low emissions, all alloy, quad-overhead camshaft, 48 valve,
6.0 liter V12 engine generated an increase in power from 460hp to
520hp @ 7000rpm. The Vanquish S received new cylinder heads with
fully machined inlet ports and combustion chambers to improve
airflow, better connecting rods, revised engine mapping and new
fuel injectors. The overall interior design is a subtle blend of
traditional, classic and modern materials with a bridge of Weir
leather upholstery matched to contemporary metal interior fittings
and finishes. A number of detailed improvements were made to the
interior of the Vanquish S to enhance the overall appeal. The
luxurious but purposeful two seat cabin 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. The 2005 Aston Martin V12
Vanquish S is already established as a modern classic and will only
appreciate with time. Only 1,086 cars were produced worldwide
making this gorgeous example an excellent addition to any
enthusiasts collection.
