This is a very rare 2005 Aston Martin Vanquish S with 1900 miles. One of very few that were made for the USA and
very likely the lowest mile and most pristine car left in the USA. This is a two owner car that has all service up
to date, no blemishes, no paint work, no stories. The car has always been serviced at a factory authorized Aston
dealer. The car comes with all the items that came with the car when new. (all keys, charger, umbrella, new indoor
car cover, books and records). This is the car for the collector that must have the lowest mile and best Vanquish S
left in the country. Being the best driving Aston ever made this is likely to be a very desirable and valuable car
in the future. Aston acknowledges how special this car is by classifying the Vanquish S under their “Heritage
Program” which is the designation they use for their most significant and collectible models. This 2+2 Vanquish
S is a beautiful grey color called Meteorite Silver over Phantom Grey interior. The car has the rear seat option
and has an original MSRP of $268,000.The car is stored in a climate controlled storage facility in Westchester NY
and viewing can be arranged during normal business hours.
Some info on the rare Vanquish S model:
The 2005 Aston Martin Vanquish S was produced as a true supercar from Aston to mark the last of the hand made cars,
the last car made at the Newport Pagnell factory which started with the DB4 in 1958. It was the final and last of
the cars made all by hand with true fine craftsmanship.
Each Vanquish S took over 400 hours of labor to produce.
Upgrades to the S from a standard Vanquish include more power rated at 520 bhp up from 460 bhp in a standard
Vanquish. Bigger revised grille, front splitter and raised rear spoiler built into the boot lid to keep the car
stable at higher speeds. The car also has 20% more direct steering, larger brakes and unique wheels. The
Vanquish/Vanquish S is also the only Aston to get a carbon fiber roll bar in the engine bay and a 100% full flat
under floor like race cars.
The S was a true supercar with a top speed rated over 200 MPH, and an engine sound no other modern Aston can beat.
A very unique raw feel to this car without DSC, only a limited slip differential and traction control.
The gearbox is not an automatic with torque converter, it is a manual with electro-hydraulic clutch so you have
full control over the engine.
A very rare car with a total of 711 left hand drive Vanquish S models ever made with less than half of those
imported to the USA.
This is likely to be one of the most collectible and valuable Astons ever made, and likely the only modern Aston
that will ever be highly collectible. Prices have already risen in Europe significantly ahead of the price here in
the US.

2015 Aston Martin V12 Vantage S Roadster

Mon, Oct 20 2014

Aston Martin previewed its most powerful, quickest-accelerating and fastest production roadster ever at this year's Pebble Beach Concours. The 2015 V12 Vantage S Roadster is essentially a convertible version of the V12 Vantage S Coupe, which we reviewed last year, a model that drops the automaker's most potent powertrain into its smallest chassis. Unlike the outgoing V12 Vantage Roadster, this new S model boasts a more powerful engine, a new transmission, new adaptive suspension and more luxurious appointments along with freshened styling. While last year's beloved six-speed manual gearbox is gone – a thought that continues to bring tears to our eyes – everything else about the updated roadster piques our interest. We recently spent a full day in the mountains and deserts surrounding Palm Springs with a China Grey (with red carbon fiber accents) version of the British automaker's latest. Driving Notes Mirroring its coupe sibling, the Vantage S Roadster features an all-aluminum monocoque platform with lightweight aluminum body panels. To replace stiffness lost when the roof was removed, a rigid cross member has been added to the open platform. The Roadster's power-operated soft top is fully automatic in operation, opening and closing in about 20 seconds at speeds upwards of 30 miles per hour with the touch of a switch. When tucked away, the entire assembly is hidden cleanly beneath an integrated hard tonneau cover. So as not to be mistaken for its predecessor, Aston Martin has upgraded the model's signature grille from aluminum to carbon fiber with black or titanium silver mesh, with or without body-color accents. The lightweight, forged aluminum, 10-spoke alloys are also new, as is the obvious scripted red "S" on the trunklid. Inside, occupants will find additional grippy Alcantara on the seats and new patterns in the stitching. There are also a slew of upscale options and access to Aston Martin's bespoke Q treatment available. Aston's famed, naturally aspirated, 6.0-liter V12 has been upgraded with a larger throttle body, dual variable valve timing, a revised intake manifold, an improved fuel pump and fully machined combustion chambers. Combined, the improvements are enough to warrant a new AM28 engine designation. On a dyno, the engine cranks out 565 horsepower and 457 pound-feet of torque.

Aston Martin tests new Lagonda super-sedan in Oman

Sun, Sep 7 2014

Aston Martin has been on a long road towards reviving the Lagonda name. The last Lagonda – that famously wedgy sedan – ended production in 1990. The name came back on a crossover concept in 2009, but for better or worse, never reached production. Then about a month ago, Aston teased a new super sedan to revive the marque, and shipped it off to Oman for hot weather testing under the baking Arabian sun. And now it's released a full batch of photos giving us our best look at the exclusive new four-door yet. This first verification prototype is taking part in a four-week testing cycle in the Sultanate, running some 500 miles per day with the aim of logging 14,000 test miles in temperatures as high as 120 degree Fahrenheit. The British automaker (known in full as Aston Martin Lagonda Ltd.) purposely chose a black paintjob to further punish its prototype, including an hours-long heat soak test that will bring the surface temperature of the cabin trim up to around 175 degrees. Aston isn't telling us much about the sedan itself, but we figure it's more likely to be powered by the company's ubiquitous 6.0-liter V12 engine and based on the aging VH architecture, though for all we know at this point, it could packing the upcoming AMG-sourced turbo eight and new platform. What we can see is that the styling is a radical departure from the design language to which Aston adhered rather rigidly over the past couple of decades, potentially previewing a new styling direction for the British marque. Unfortunately you shouldn't expect to see one in your neighborhood, because production will be strictly limited and exclusive to the Middle East.

Aston Martin announces $306M in funding to build DBX, 'other new luxury vehicles'

Fri, May 1 2015

Aston Martin has just gotten one step closer to building a crossover, as the British outfit has secured a 200-million-pound (about $306 million at today's rates) infusion of capital from its leading shareholders. The money will allow Aston Martin to develop "a new vehicle based on the DBX concept," although just how closely the production model will adhere to the concept's styling is unclear. Andy Palmer, the company's CEO, also hinted at other models being added, thanks to the funds. "This additional long-term funding, will enable us to add extra model lines and broaden our presence in the luxury market segment by the end of the decade. The DBX concept has generated interest far beyond our expectations," Palmer said in the attached statement. "The additional investment announced today will allow us to realize the DBX and other new luxury vehicles that will form the strongest and most diverse portfolio in our history." It's unclear what these "other new luxury vehicles" will include. Previous reports have indicated a Lagonda-badged replacement for the aging Rapide will be added to the range, although considering the age of the rest of Aston Martin's lineup, it's a safe bet that at least some of this money will also be put towards vehicles beyond the new CUV and sedan.
