The Aston Martin experience continues with newly tooled Aston Martin Vanquish, based on the real life 2012 top of the range vehicle. Presented in 2-door coupe form, our 1:43 scale model is painted an unusual metallic bright green and replicates the refinements of its 1:1 counterpart in amazing realism. The exterior has a wealth of detail including the side grilles, wipers and window frames reproduced in black, spoked wire wheels with intricately modelled brake disc and calliper features and door mirrors reflecting the main body colour. The interior mirrors the state of the art features of the real car and comes with grey seating and black instrument panels. The registration plate reads VANQUISH – a complete understatement!

The Vanquish is classed as a grand tourer, originally designed by Ian Callum, with the first generation Vanquish being manufactured between 2001 and 2007, fitted with 6-speed gearbox, V12 engine and an amazing top speed of 200 mph. In 2007 the Vanquish was superseded by the Aston Martin DBS. Then in 2012, the Vanquish name was revived for the successor to the DBS to be manufactured at the Gaydon plant and which we have chosen for our newly tooled model.

The exterior styling of the new Vanquish is similar to its predecessors in many ways, with a slightly altered Aston Martin grille and headlights but it now features re-designed rear lights and a more pronounced bulge in the bonnet. The side vents run almost to the door handles and the boot lid has an integrated rear spoiler, an exposed carbon fibre skirt showing its all carbon fibre body and the car has a new chassis. Additional upgrades include ventilated carbon ceramic disc brakes and anti -roll bar, while its upgraded technical specifications include a front mid-mounted engine with automatic 6-speed gearbox and stainless steel exhaust system.
