Today on the channel I am driving the second generation of Aston Martin's flagship Vanquish - launched in 2013. This is the car that replaced the DBS, which in turn had replaced the original V12 Vanquish.
Even amongst afficionados, the Vanquish is often overlooked, particularly these earlier six speed examples - but why? More importantly - are they any good?

I’ve driven that very car! In 2014 for my wedding, then 4 days around the Wye Valley. Nearly cried when it had to go back and my wife seemed cross that I didn’t get that emotional on our wedding day.

The crazy thing is this car is now over a decade old but in terms of styling, especially from the front 3/4 view it could genuinely have been released this year and I wouldn't question it (the rear's lack of a lightbar dates it a little, but I personally like the style). It's an absolutely brilliant piece of car design and for my money a far better looking thing than this year's DB12!

[@JayEmmOnCars]

Id have one over a DB12 in a heartbeat

[@mc4130]

10yrs old!! Wow. Didn’t actually figure that till I read this! It’s stunning and has aged so well.

[@user-sw2ob4iw1m]

Class is permanent.

[@speedee7]

Thank god, this car does not have lightbar. All cars don't have to have unibrows ...

[@neblolthecarnerd]

There is this one episode of top gear that I watched as a kid that has stuck with me for years. It was a US road trip where Clarkson had a yellow LFA, Hammond had a black viper and May had a light blue vanquish. All 3 of those cars remain some of my favourites to this day. Its probably the single piece of media thats most informed my taste in cars.

[@JayEmmOnCars]

I haven't watched that in ages. Might have to tonight

[@bwdrives]

So interesting that the Vanquish would have been a competitor to the LFA at the time, the only thing that sets them apart now is rarity and that unique screaming V10

[@stevenholden2336]

Love these, feels like a lot of car doesnt it.

[@dylanwakley2553]

To answer your 60k question, as someone who grew up around the time of the launch of casino royale, it simply would have to be a DBS. Specifically the tungsten silver example for sale at Aston Martin London for 59,900

[@toms_garage]

So true!

[@stanlee3619]

I was at a party being given and attended by very affluent people. I was outside getting some air, when a guest pulled up with a DBS from the Casino Royale era. All of the valet parking staff lost their minds, including the women who were working there. The women generally don't get impressed by cars, but they were by this. I'm also blown away by the exterior, but having sat in one, the interior is deeply disappointing.

[@Kalepsis]

I've recently purchased a 2015 Vanquish... I highly recommend it. It's a FANTASTIC car, especially with the 8-speed gearbox and extra power. I love it so much I really can't imagine ever selling it.

[@Pulsonar]

If I still had a tidy sum I had few years ago mate, I’d do the same. Count yourself lucky to be in a position to indulge, I was knocked sideways recently, life happens.

[@sidelnie]

I will probably trade-in my Rapide S for a Vanquish when my daughter turns 13 (about 3 years from now). I love the Rapide for practicality but it weighs 550 pounds more than the Vanquish and the exhaust opens up about 500 rpm later (at ~3,000 rpm). It’s a perfect intro to exotic car ownership, though because I never lose traction and can enjoy that glorious V12 sound year-round

[@chrishart8548]

I think over the years, that we became so over exposed to yet another V12 VH Chassis Aston coming out we didn’t stop to appreciate each of them in turn. Now they’re gone, they all seem really special. Time to buy before everyone else realises this too lol…

[@quercusrobur5045]

Love my 2013 Vanquish. It's "only" got six speed but I have never thought to myself "if only I had another two gears" and even the mighty Aston guru Mike from Bamford Rose once commented that six is enough.

[@chriscarbaugh3936]

When you have torque you don’t need 8 speeds. This generation of 8 and even 10 speeds transmissions help fuel economy and do not really help cars with large torque numbers.

[@chrisconey7062]

Starting off the videos with revs and engine sound and nothing else is genius :)

[@marcbutler4185]

Possibly my favourite review so far. Absolutely excellent. So pleased your channel has went from strength to strength. You talk absolute sense in a straight forward way. That shouldn’t be rare but we all know it is. And if for nothing else the 80’s inspired outro is magical. Thank you

[@KarelBeelaertsvanBlokland]

Interesting review from a former DB9 owner - DBS - Vantage and VanquishS are the best-looking AM - Love the Engine!

Yes, he is absolutely right, I have a 2013 Vanquish and Im extremely pleased with the car, can recommend to anybody who is looking for a sports car in this price range to go and get one ;)

[@user-nj4en2br6e]

Lovely stuff as always Mr Emm! 💪👌

[@normsallitt2753]

Just buy yourself a Vanquish or DBS, James! 2 years ago your videos helped me decide on whether to buy a Granturismo, Vanquish or DBS, as those were my top 3 choices. I decided to go with the Maserati, as after 20 yrs of Porsche's, I desired to finally own an elegant Pininfarina Italian super model, so I went with the lowest mileage 2017 Sport in Grigio Granito/Cuoio that I could find. I can say that I honestly have zero regrets. BUT, I still search the classifieds regularly to see if a DBS or vanquish pops up in my perfect spec. You only live once, buddy, and you've already had your fun in the F12. I personally believe that the Astons or the Maserati suits guys like you, and I better than anything from the prancing horse. Good luck from across the pond and best wishes on your Quest, my friend!!

[@polestar5]

I would absolutely, absolutely, absolutely have a 2013 Vanquish. I can’t quite put my finger on it but it’s one of my all time dream cars. Especially if I could find one in Flugplatz Blue.

[@cjoel2379]

183… to 201mph… not sure I will ever get to test that improvement.. but… one loves this car, just exquisite.

Vantage V12 manual would be my go to option, right after the early V8 Vantage.

[@samlawts1193]

[@stevedavies4299]

Great info and great video, now I’m looking, just looking👍

[@timorgano]

As much as I love the Vanquish, the DBS just looks so much nicer to me. As for what £60k Aston I'd have, it is a hard decision between that and a V8 Vantage S. If I could buy a cheaper car and have the rest of the money to "mod" it, I would have a DB7 3.2. I have had some very interesting thoughts about what I would do to one of those

[@JBed0011]

Always so incredibly informative James!! Love the Vanquish so much, that noise!!!! Makes me cry how cheap cars are in the UK, you guys have it SO good over there!!!

[@NomadJRG]

This era of Vanquish is my favourite of all the possible Astons I could reasonably see myself getting my hands on. Would love an S but not for the current premium and I would be constantly worrying about damaging that front end!

[@michaelmeredith912]

Great video. I’m on my second viewing already 😄🙌🏼

[@dajw]

I was lucky enough to drive a Vanquish Carbon Black a few years ago, and compared to my V8 Vantage it was a massive step up in performance and luxury. It became my “lottery win car” but my numbers have yet to appear. I sold the V8V and zip around in an A110, which is the most fun car on the planet but I am very tempted by that Vanquish… here’s hoping the numbers come up. Nice video as always.

[@steverichards1025]

Excellent film, one of your best. I've got a Gen1 VQ (my third!) and I'm besotted. Your vid is the first time I'm tempted to look at gen 2...

Awesome video video Jay! You guys have it so good in the UK the cars are so so cheap!!

[@FazerWiz]

Vanquish with the 8 speed box would be my choice. I'm lucky enough to own a DB11 and love it, but I think the Vanquish has the best sound track of any supercar.

[@richieduck67]

[@Snarfcat]

Great review. This is my favourite modern Aston. In my opinion, the Aston is miles better looking than a Ferrari F12- it’s barely a conversation.

[@leonardr6704]

These Vanquishes are incredible packages. Drop-dead gorgeous, incredible sounding, by most accounts quite reliable and comfortable (read:daily-able). The 8-speed ZF is icing on the cake. The fact they are as affordable as they are is amazing to me.

[@PakdbyCellpak]

Hi James, Astons do currently seem to offer some very tempting and good value pickings compared to their contemporaries. Encouraged by our recent(ish) BAE Vantare project and a bunch of your Aston Martin videos (thankyou), I just picked up a lovely Rapide gen1 in Casino Royale silver. I absolutely bloomin love it. Agree nothing wrong with the 6 speed TII transaxles. Do it 😎. Dom

I picked up a Quantum Silver Vanquish Volante late last year. MY14 with 6 speed ZF. It's a great car. It might be a bit blasphemous, but I did a primary cat removal / equal length headers with upgraded secondary cats. While the original exhaust is glorious, I have grown to love the new sound. It quite literally screams, now.

[@troublecluster]

Great video as always Jay!! Staring across from North America I have to admit I do get jealous of the over supply of Astons in the UK, the prices here across the VH range is still relatively high because of lack of supply. Any of them that have dropped in price are usually cars that have not been cared for all that well and especially so for convertibles showing notable sun damage to the interior leather and trim from a life in the sun. Oh if only the UK was LHD... ;-)

[@JayEmmOnCars]

Yes we may have salt on the roads but the sun is nowhere near as brutal!

[@rustywishbone]

I love all Astons, but the one I find most beautiful is the DB7 - so good, I bought one. Nice to hear that they are increasing in value.

[@dadcars]

I am sooooo enjoying your journey down the VH Aston rabbit hole! 😅 For me for £60k I’d take a Rapide S touch tronic 3! And daily it… But as part of a fleet the vanquish 2 is hard to deny at this money

[@TheOrangeEliseCup250]

Aston Martin V12 music is magic. Just want one because of this🧡🇬🇧🎶🎶🎶

[@BangAverageRider]

One recently dropped into the low 50k price range but with a 2019 vantage around similar prices it also makes that a bargain not to be overlooked

[@SW-by9ob]

There's a 33k mile 2013 Vanquish up for £53,500 at the minute in a great colour combo and spec. The second gen Vantage from 2018 have always depreciated like a stone due to the styling and Mercedes heavy interior. Tht's why it's been replaced already with a newer model.

[@BangAverageRider]

Yes thats the Vanquish i saw it was priced over 60 only a couple of weeks ago, i dont have the money for it but have been watching them but with the next gen Vantage going for 60 could this be the better option as i worry about the running costs of a 2013 Vanquish over the Vantage

[@SW-by9ob]

@@BangAverageRider Potentially, but that would likely be offset by the lower depreciation on the Vanquish going forward especially if bought well like that black example? As a daily the Vantage makes a lot more sense, but as a car for more limited special use the Vanquish has it beaten hands down for me.

[@BangAverageRider]

I have to agree, looks, sound, a special occasion car for sure. I cant imagine the vantage going much lower as the other older cars are not much cheaper!

Quite possibly the most beautiful car ever made ❤

Jay based on your previous review of the Vanquish I bought a later 8speed Carbon edition last year and it is awesome. I love the styling cues from the one-77 and the sound of the V12 is awesome. Final point as you say is the value. My car was over £200k new and I picked it up at 6 years old with only 17,000 miles for just under half that. 😊

[@alexprost7505]

Cool

[@XJRSuper]

I've had a ZF8 version since 2018. Great car. I can't believe how cheap the early 6 speed cars are now, and they still drive great. You don't win the "200mph club" chat down the pub, but who cares when it's the same price as a 520d with a few options. I wonder if they'll eventually climb back up and be seen as peak era - that noise, natural aspiration, carbon, that styling... Ticks a fair few boxes.

A manual 4.7 Vantage would be my first search

[@deaks25]

For the £60k AutoTrader Game; I love the Mk 1 Vanquish, I think the Virage is a very clean look and the Mk 2 Vanquish is a stunner but I'm going for the one that is rarer and turns more heads: the DB7. A coupe GT (For the manual gearbox) in a dark colour with cream interior. One currently on AutoTrader for £50k. My perfect colour is the light blue (apparently Mendip blue, didn't know it, but looked it up) with the cream interior. Far more than just an XK8 in a fancy suit and stands out from any VH-Platform Aston while still being as classy as it gets. Rare as heck so will be always feel as special as a car can get.

[@tug1345]

I had a look on Autotrader, right now in Bagshot there's a Vantage S 4.7 in Volcano Red with Sahara tan leather, 2017 21,000 miles, £58,450, it looks gorgeous and different a beautiful car a great colour combo, whoever chose that brand new fair play to you great choice, there is some cheaper Vantage S 4.7's looking nice in black, but when I saw the red one, then saw inside, yeah very nice

[@SW-by9ob]

The Vantage S is a very different car though. On AT at the minute there's a 2013 33k mile Vanquish in black with cream interior for £53,500. That would 100% be my pick.

[@tug1345]

@SW-by9ob They're certainly all very nice, I was looking for something in a different colour combo that the normal, there's a nice DB9 Volante in British Racing Green, a few Rapides in different colours, but the rest are all silver grey and black, out those 3, black looks good on an Aston, Tungsten Silver is nice, there's an old Vanquish with a magnetic gearbox upgrade looks good, but that red one I saw just looked so good amongst all the others and in great nick

[@FRFRANKIE]

Hi James. Hope your doing well. I really loved the video. I would still buy a DB9. I've always liked the DB9. I loved all the colors of those cars.

[@matthewgooch6892]

Agreed ! I bought a 2008. DB9 And it is all the Aston you really need, all for £35 -£40k for a good one. Do it ! You only live once 😊

[@MRVSKIN]

The vanquish everytime. And what you said about the running costs of the F12. Get a vanquish S sell the F12 and bank the money left over. Win win. Have to disagree the vanquish looks sooooooo much better than the F12

[@betodo9984]

I paid little visit to the AutoTrader and around 60k...Always a big fan of the saloon body type, so I found a 2015 Rapide S at Aston Martin London: beautiful 20 inch wheels, unique shade of sliver (tungsten silver as they said) with ZF 8sp box at and in a solid spec. I do wish it could have a colored interior rather than black and 62 grand seem bit off from average price as AutoTrader suggested... but hey i ain't gonna complain no more with that more even powerful v12 soundtrack under the bonnet.

Vanquish is my favourite Aston ❤

[@richjohn9356]

[@grahamcutress47]

V12 Vantage as a weekend toy for me and a simple Audi for midweek motions

[@Bearcat299]

I would definitely get this car. That's my dream car. But for my next car, it will be a DB9, in something like 3 year. But after the DB9, the Vanquish is my ultimate goal, the 8 speed version more precisely. I found this car perfect in term of design (which is extremely rare for me, I always tend to found some little things for this or that angle, but not on this one), sound and practicality. Plus the 8 speed is quite fuel efficient, I could even say very efficient for a v12.

[@BenB91]

I'm sold. Love it.

[@m4rk592]

Where else can you get a £190000 carbon fibre bodied, 200+mph, gorgeous looking car, there is no comparison and the one thing not mentioned is the smell when you climb into one, your nose is caressed by the amazing smell on the connelly leather, it is as a package sensational, and the biggest bargain on the used car market.

[@davidw5662]

Such a beautiful and great sounding car. Would you go for a DBS mk 2 instead if they were around the same price?

[@PenryMMJ]

I played the game, but I went to car & classic instead of auto trader. There's a 1981 Lagonda up for £59,995. It appears really well sorted with a great history. It's probably a good thing that I haven't got the money.

[@mcc5901]

Pretty is not a word I would use to describe the F12. The Aston Vanquish blows the F12 out of the water looks wise. Its lines are fluid while those of the F12, while striking, are angular and therefore disjointed.

[@Bmontepeque11]

This is the very car that made me like Aston Martins, and to me this is the most beautiful Aston ever made (I don't know a lot of the classics) and perhaps, one of the most beautiful cars ever. ❤ I like this more than the One-77. (That is too aggressive for my liking) And also, that "V Car" naming startegy is an amazing fact! :O I had no idea! It could have worked if instead of introducing a whole new car with no point they would have just renamed the DB9 but well, here we are with the David Brown 12 😂

[@suzukiomelette4387]

Such a beautiful car

[@markwickens7271]

Love my Volante 8spd! Bit too heavy to be really exciting and never feels quite as fast as the numbers suggest but a wonderful car nonetheless. Looks, feels and sounds very special. But yes, you are right to be concerned about that front end… no matter how careful you are 😬💷 Not convinced the 8spd is essential though; there is loads of torque and 8th is only really for the motorway anyway. I had a 6spd DB9 previously and I find myself thinking 7 speed would have been ideal ha!

[@moonbabyking]

For the 60k question it would have to be either the DBS for its stunning looks, or a V12 vantage with a manual. I always remember Jeremy Clarkson reviewing the V12 vantage for top gear and he barely said a word in it, he simply let the looks of the car and the engine note do the talking with Brian Eno playing over the top.

[@6rimR3ap3r]

Now that you mentioned them again I am a little shocked by the prices of DB7...

[@Simont6.0]

I set the Autotrader search for Astom Martin...price up to £60k and there were 350 Astons fro sale.....they used to make that many a year at one stage didn't they???? Like you I have noticed that the price of a Vanquish 2 has dropped...and I do like them a lot....even though I have just got my DB9 I am keeping an eye on the prices! I do like the red colour too!

[@user-rt6mt7op6l]

Needs to be the latest and greatest AM29 version of the V12 engine and the ZF 8 speed box. Wrap a nice body around this, a classy paint colour, tasteful (not black) interior and you have the 200mph+ answer.

[@EleanorPeterson]

2:53 - Eh? 'Yomp' is military infantry-speak for a gruelling hike; I think you may have meant 'yump', which is Finnish-rally-driver English for 'jump' [i.e. a bump in the road big enough to get you airborne]. A yump is usually marked in the pace-notes as 'flat over brow' or Flatoverbrau if you prefer German lager.🍺 Cheers!

[@user-yy7co8bi6d]

I always found the DBS to be a little too similar to the DB9, though comparing it now to the Vanquish that replaced it, I can better appreciate its more classic beauty, and it certainly looks more athletic than earlier DB9s. But I'd say the Vanquish better matches your shirts....😁 , it's the newer car so likely to be the more resolved drive, with an improved interior, so would get my vote.

[@JacquelineLanceTenor]

For me it would have to be a 2006 Vanquish S. I have always been so in love with the classic Vanquish to the point that I get emotional daydreamimg about owning one. Lol

I used to reverse it intoy garage and rev it hard, just to get more glorious pipe music. A real head turner.
