The Aston Martin Vantage is a true sporting thoroughbred. By distilling our unique design and engineering ethos into a compact and handsome sports car, each Vantage model displays its own unmistakable and pure sporting character. Coupe or Roadster, V8 or V12, the Vantage range embodies all that is great about Aston Martin.
In 2012, this iconic range continued to evolve, with a comprehensive array of improvements to the V8 Vantage and the unveiling of the exclusive, limited edition V12 Vantage Roadster.
Sophisticated engineering and artful design combine with exceptional performance and dynamism.
The New V8 Vantage features a raft of enhancements including an all new 4.7-litre 420bhp (426PS/313kW) entry-level engine. A choice of transmissions; a six-speed manual with an additional option of our advanced seven-speed Sportshift™ II. With an additional gear, closer ratios, lower final drive and a quicker, refined shift quality, this new gearbox – designed and manufactured specifically for Aston Martin – provides faster and more precise shifts for a pure sports car experience.
