Aston Martin have used the Vantage name on several of
their high-end hand-built British models to date but the 2-door
roadster/2-door coupé grand tourer Vantage S must represent the
ultimate in luxury sports motoring. Superlatives include a 5.9 litre V12
engine, a top speed of 205 mph, acceleration from 0-60 mph in 3.70
seconds making it the fastest production Aston Martin in history and a 7
speed automated manual gear box which for 2017 has been further
upgraded to a 7-speed Dog-leg gearbox. Even second-hand, an extremely
low mileage example of the V12 Vantage S commands a price tag of nearly
£130K. Seriously wealthy motorist only need apply!
Oxford brings our dreams back to reality with a superbly executed
example of the motor in fiery red with black trim, with registration
plate reading V12 VANTAGE S. The interior features a right hand drive
option with corresponding RHD components. The windscreen wipers have
also been configured for RHD operation. Seating is red/black with red
door panels and speaker housing and remaining interior detail is
finished in black/silver. The unmistakable Aston Martin badge sits on
the front edge of the sloping bonnet, heralding its presence in your
rear view mirror before its familiar growl sends it haring past into the
distance!
