An entirely new Aston Martin for the 21st Century, the original Vanquish debuted at the Geneva Auto Show in March 2001 with deliveries commencing a few months later. Styled by Ian Callum, the man responsible for the DB7, the V12-engined Vanquish took over from the Vantage V8, the Newport Pagnell factory undergoing an extensive multi-million pound refurbishment to accommodate it.
For the successor, '2nd Generation' Vanquish, production shifted to Aston Martin's new factory at Gaydon, from whence deliveries commenced in late 2012/early 2013. Developed from the Project AM310 concept car, the new Vanquish utilised a lighter chassis employing more carbon fibre than the existing DBS platform, as well as having all-carbon fibre bodywork. The exterior styling had evolved from that of the DBS, with styling cues such as the elongated side strakes clearly inspired by the exclusive, limited edition One-77, while the boot lid featured an integral rear spoiler. The One-77's influence also extended to the interior, which boasted hand-stitched leather and Alcantara.
Beneath the bonnet there was an upgraded version of Aston Martin's flagship 6.0-litre V12 engine producing 565bhp and 457lb/ft of torque, while the transmission was an 'Touchtronic II' six-speed paddle-shift automatic. Performance figures of 0-100km/h (0-62mph) in 4.1 seconds and a top speed of 183mph (294km/h) were claimed. Keeping all this in check were ventilated carbon ceramic discs all round, gripped by six-piston callipers at the front and four-piston units at the rear. Suspension was by double wishbones front and rear, controlled by a three-way-adjustable adaptive damping system offering Normal, Sport, and Track modes.
Built to Swiss specifications, this first-of-the-line '2nd Generation' Vanquish - chassis number '001' - was purchased new by the current vendor from Aston Martin Geneva in February 2013. Stored since acquisition, having covered 'delivery mileage' only, this wonderful car will require recommissioning before it returns to the road. Accompanying documentation consists of photocopies of a Swiss Carte Grise and the 2013 sales invoice listing the specification in full.
