Aston Martin Vanquish: official footage, images released

ASTON MARTIN -1

FIND DEALS

A flood of official Aston Martin Vanquish photos and videos displaying the British marques latest masterpiece, have been released.

The images and short videos are courtesy of world-renowned photographer Rene Staud, who shot the Aston Martin Vanquish in and around Italy’s Tuscan hills.

These glimpses behind the scenes have been joined by official driving footage of the V12-powered Vanquish blasting through the Italian countryside with all 421kW and 620Nm on song.

As previously reported on CarAdvice, the Aston Martin Vanquish becomes the brand’s most powerful full production model in the company’s history.

Aston Martin claims a 0-100km/h-sprint time of just 4.1 seconds for the Vanquish, and a top speed of 295km/h.

Only the limited edition $1,850,000 (before taxes and on-road costs) Aston Martin One-77 is quicker.

Enjoy the superb shots and footage of the Aston Martin Vanquish.

    I thought I saw these videos and pics 9 yrs ago back in 03. However I now realise this is not the DB9 but their latest effort. I love Astons but even I admit it is time for them to adopt a new design language, but maybe they are going to do a porsche and just do the odd tweak here and there ala 911 for the next 40+ years!

      Rubbish. Why ruin what isn’t broken?

         It is still one of the most stunning cars around.

        Exactly Sumpguard! it looks fantastic! why would you change the design language of the most beautiful cars on the road

         I saw this all last weekend – it’s a beautiful car with a beautiful noise. I quite love it. It’s timeless.

        For those who want different styling, you can always find a Pontiac Aztek available 2nd or 3rd hand in the USA.

        That must be hard for you to say THAT Sumpguard.! Considering one of Aston Martin
        owner is FORD.! & we all know how much you love them.lol.!!!

      Huh? The only car you could mistake this for is the current Virage. It looks nothing like the original DB9…

    • Kanghyun Lee

      Sounds like you never seen DB9 before. This looks nothing like DB9.

  • Andrew Sherwood

    The next Bond car.

  • Yetiman

    Is a timeless design, just like Rolex.

    Not the biggest fan of the front, of the Vanquish. Prefer the original DB9 more. I love the side and rear of this, following one would be amazing (especially in a convertible). The site and sound would me breathtaking.

    Absolutely Beautiful!! IMO the most beautiful car PERIOD.

    I too felt a slight urge to complain that all Astons are starting to constantly look the same…….but f&ck me, this thing is pretty. I have decided to just shut up and admire it for what it is instead. Brilliant.

  • Jonty

    That is a piece of art with a great sound track. Brings new meaning to the phrase…I just want one!

  • Monk

    blah blah blah.
    Stop complaining about the age of the design.  Someone might listen to you and change it – and the chances are the new design would look worse.

    I’d love to have one of these. It suits me well. But then I’ve always liked the modern Aston Martin cars much more than the heavy old lumps they used to make (the 2 tonne supercharged Vantage) or that ugly Lagonda.

    I know Im going to be alone on this but to me these Astons are starting to lose their way stylistically. There is a simplicity, cleanliness and grace to the bodywork of the DB9 and AMV8 which I think is now being unnecessarily ”jazzed up” for the sake of differentiation. The One-77 (which I admittedly have not seen in the metal) appears very over worked and the DBS is getting precariously close to looking like it has a cheap aftermarket Boy Racer body kit. 
    Complex bodywork tends to date quickly and not always well (Countach is an exception) and I don’t see these more recent designs being as highly regarded as their earlier incarnations in years to come.
