New Aston Martin Vanquish S 2017 review - pictures

  • Aston Martin Vanquish S - front cornering
  • Aston Martin Vanquish S - rear cornering

    The Aston Martin Vanquish has for a long time been a mainstay of the GT world. Offering style, performance and luxury, it has proved popular over the years, however it has not been without fault.

  • Aston Martin Vanquish S - interior

    The Vanquish S is the last outing for the delicious naturally aspirated 6.0-litre V12.

  • Aston Martin Vanquish S - front quarter

    It doesn’t matter if you opt for the coupe or the convertible; you get the same 0-62mph time and top speed of 201mph.

  • Aston Martin Vanquish S - rear quarter

    Tax for the first year is the same as a small second-hand hatchback - £2,000. Which may sound a lot, but is only 1 per cent of the list price, so if you look at it that way it is a bargain...

  • Aston Martin Vanquish S - front quarter

    This is the Aston Martin Vanquish S.

    Non-S models lost approximately 55 per cent after three years of ownership, and we expect the S models to similar.

    Even though beauty is in the eye of the beholder, few can argue the Vanquish isn’t a sight for sore eyes. The tweaks to the bodywork are there to reduce lift and increase head turns.
